Judgement versis acceptance

[Guest guest]

Namaste: Lately I have been watching myself judge others. I cannot

seem to accept folks as they are. Today, as I witnessed the " judgment

" thought arise and begin to capture my attention, I had the presence

of mind to substitute a mantra is place of the thought.

The mantra really helped to dissipate the negative energy and gently

carried my attention away from the thought.

Maa tells us that we are not our thoughts, and we should just tell

them to " go away " , but I do not have that kind of strength.

I know so well that judgment is harmful on every level of life, and I

truly wish to stop this behavior.

How do others deal with these issues? I will ask Swami for advice too

and post his reply.

 

Jai Maa Jai Swami
