How to Stop Judging...

The answer to this question is your ticket out of all suffering & into the Joy of Being, the answer to the deepest yearning of your heart. If you can answer the question, "how do you get out of an impossible situation", you've found the answer.

Psychology has had a stab at dealing with this question for centuries, hasn't worked has it. You may even have travelled the various roads of theology & learned that judging is a terrible thing that you shouldn't do. You may even find yourself in a world of guilt where you know you shouldn't but you just can't seem to help it. I was there too, trying to pretend my mind wasn't judging, but it was. A bit like a smoker takes a puff & says they haven't but the stench is impossible to deny!

Well perhaps this conversation will come as a great relief & likely take you deeper than you might have realized you needed to go in order to overcome this conundrum.

You see judgement is unavoidable, it comes with the package of person-hood, it's a core element of the survival mechanism. To get rid of it would be like saying, take out the heart, it's not necessary, I'll carry on without it. It is VITAL to the person & impossible to avoid. To understand judgement, we need to actually come at it from another angle. One that addresses the ROOT cause of the appearance of judgement & question it's possibility & reality.

You actually can live a life, a GLORIOUS Life that is free from judgement IN Perfect Peace. But the decision that precedes this has to be that I want to know Reality, I want the Truth in order for judgement to be dissolved from the mind entirely.

Judgement is entirely unavoidable & you're here because you are keenly aware that it doesn't feel good. Whether you judge yourself or another it tastes gross & you just want to know how to stop judging people, you included!

Judge NOT lest ye be judged...There is a REALLY good reason why 'judge not from appearances' is the greatest teaching in Spiritual Awakening there is! If you accept what you think you see, you're wrong & off track 100% of the time. You, in terms of fundamental existence are NEVER wrong, it's impossible to 'be' wrong. Rather, what you think you see is corrupted by the lens you're looking through without you even realizing it. The idea of person-hood is the original corruption of vision to be resolved & with this glitch operating in the system, judgement is your lot in life & thus hell is your home now. Hell isn't a destination you go to some day in the future if you're bad. Hell is referring to the present moment experience of separation which is the deepest wound, festering deep within, that has us playing a losing game that ends in death, a guarantee for the sleeping dreamer. Yet this is un-real & up to you to decide to rise above & KNOW Heaven as You!

Judgement is an impossible condition that has you stuck in a self concept that isn't you at all. Judgement establishes conditions, it's downstream, the perceptual effect so to speak, of a deeper decision. The way out of the lesser realm of judgement & the karmic implications is to question the reality of 'who' is judging.

Because judgement is inherent to the idea of person-hood (the dream of separation), the good news is that it's impossible in Reality. Reality is Oneness which we'll expand upon a little later. I'm going to provide you with not only the answer but the existential flip & game changing pivot that will give you back the power over judgement, a way you can actually harness your judging mastery to hasten the 'way' to Peace of mind & happiness!

So how DO you escape an impossible situation? You realize you were never in it!

Take a moment to let this settle into your 'bones'.

Judgement is an unavoidable (unlawful in True Reality) rule of the game of personal reality. By definition, where there appears to be multiplicity, judgement is already established & SO deep down in the mind it is overlooked & becomes a presumed fact. Yet what appears real & that which is True do not collide. The Truth is NEVER touched by 'make believe' games of the sleeping dreamer. This is SUCH good news, it means you can't mess anything up, you only dreamed you have.

Judgement IS the very idea of a me & something other than me. It's impossible to escape because of the acceptance of the assumption of identity as a person. Judgement is how this original decision gets reinforced & proven to be right & what feels so 'icky' about it is the guilt that accumulates. It is in questioning the reality of what you identify with that the solution to judgement is found. The fact that you don't like the experience of judgement is the clue!

Judgement perpetuates the illusion of a gap in & often reversal of cause & effect. Judgement typically perpetuates the sleeping state, ensuring we stay off track by accepting cause & effect appearing on the outside where it doesn't actually exist. There is no outside & inside. Think of judgment like the producer of the show of the world, projecting thoughts into images so mindlessness reigns supreme. We REALLY believe that there is a world 'out there' & me inside the meatsuit with 'my' name. This is why judgement feels off for both the judge & the jury. It's all you.

Judgement exists because of the acceptance of error (a separate personal self identity - which doesn't exist beyond the mind; it's made-up in other words) & when we act on error, we are foolish indeed, wandering deeper into the wilderness. A particularly helpful teaching for the 'ready' mind can be found in "A Course in Miracles" here.

I propose that judgement gets repurposed & used to hasten Awakening from misidentification, healing the mind of misperception stemming from the one erroneous assumption of person-hood upon which the world appears, & is now directed with precision to determine how you feel at any given time. You already possess the only skill required to Awaken, knowing how you feel. If it's good it rarely gets your attention & doesn't need to at the early stages. If it's not, it's usually obvious & THIS is where judgement is at the epicentre & thus THERE is the acceptance of the idea of separation as a reality & THIS is where you can apply Quantum Forgiveness & expand in Peace.

Where judgement has been used unknowingly to stay stuck, it is now used to know liberated Being, to Awaken from the dream (nightmare) of separation & come 'home' to Love. With every layer of guilt that judgement applied, its removal allows the Light! You've NEVER hurt anyone or yourself, that's the cruel nature of the acceptance of the impossible idea of separation. It NEVER happened Beloved, that's how & why you're free today, here & now.

Judgement as it has been understood is a weapon of fear & self hatred (don't we judge ourselves most harshly of all?), despite appearances, the world of bodies stems from One Mind. Perception is the great deception as the Masters say.

Judgement is no longer a tool for destruction, but the portal to Peace & Love. There has never really been a body to judge or be judged, it's all part of the dream for which the remedy is to Awaken. To realize the world of separate bodies & all suffering was just a dream is the BEST news ever!

This practice allows you to perform alchemy (Self-Transcendence Alchemy provides the entire framework to transcend the impossibility of ego/judgement/time), turning the pain of judgement into expanding Peace with the ever present assistance of your own immutable Wisdom aligned with the Highest Oneness Consciousness.

Judgement harnessed in this manner will lead you into the realm of mastery of mind & guide you all the way to Pure Awareness as you become more & more sensitive to the feelings present in any given moment/situation. This allows you to go deeper to the cause behind the unwanted feelings, questioning the reality of person-hood & realizing with greater & greater clarity there is NO-one there to be upset. At the same time, you become more & more masterful at hearing the voice for Truth, the voice for Love & can walk boldly deeper & deeper to the Pristine Nature of the Self, the "I" of Being.

In Reality, Oneness, 'who' is there to judge. This is Wisdom that is experienced rather than intellectually understood, there is no thinking in Truth, rather Being, where all concepts are non-existent. Truth transcends ideas, concepts & language & you have this capacity inherent within you right now to not only go 'there' but live in Pure Awareness beyond the habit of personal fight machine. You'll come to realize that the veil between Reality & judgement perception was not only thin, but not real in the slightest.

This is Truly Living, where the clouds of judgement have disappeared & the Light that you Are can simply radiate without fear of survival of a dreamed personal identity.

You've never really been sleeping, judgement is impossible, there is Only One. A Course in Miracles says it best:

The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love’s presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all-encompassing can have no opposite.

This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way:

Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists.

The Final Judgement has already been made & you have been found INNOCENT! As is every One in Truth. Personal perception is a cruel trick, a decision to accept an impossible situation & dreamed attempt to create a reality of person-hood that has no Truth to it. You don't have to wait until your tolerance for pain threshold is breached. If you're reading this you're already well aware of the empty offerings in even the best the dreamed world has to offer. You already have everything because you already are everything. Know THIS, & Be Happy.

Our focus at the Oneness Collective is simply doing 'this' work, removing the blocks to Pure Awareness, to 'see' that Love went nowhere! To KNOW peace of mind & happiness that has no conditions or comparisons. To live IN the Peace that passeth understanding. Why? Because we can, nothing is standing in the way but illusory ideas...
