Nick…

It must be the experience of the real and unreal within yourself WITHOUT judgement. Judging destroys the experience. Nothing good can come out of building on the unreal other than to put money in the pockets of charlatans and misguided “experts”.

Im not sure what you mean by judgment though i assume you refer to judging something before you actualy experience it. To be open minded to the expereince and then catagorize it as it has genuinely affected you.

I ony wanted to say that i believe SELF judgment is necessary in a sense for knowing oneself truely. Being honest with oneself about the personal agendas and or motives behind our actions. Being honest with ourselves about how we are thus affecting others. And binding ourselves by the proper judgment we have aquired concerning our actions and relationships.

“A man who lives by the law of his heart is a law unto himself”…

Only then can we develope a proper (secure) paradigme in our search for spiritual truth and enlightenment. This is not to say we should like-wise judge others…

“judge not (others) lest ye be judged (by another)”…

“How do you point out the splinter in your neighbors eye and know not of the log in your own”…

The judging of others is the responsability of them and God. The judging of onself is a step towards the divine(knowinfg oneself and ones relationship with God).

Hi Peesaw

I’m already completely confused. You can’t make it any worse.

It is the premature categorizing that denies any understanding. An experience becomes good or bad in accordance with our preconceptions. We lose the understanding that it just “is”.

Before we can judgeourselves we must first be ableto distinguish between the truth and a lie in ourselves. We underestimate how much of our personal psychology is determined by inner lies we are even unaware of. This is very subtle.

“A man who lives by the law of his heart is a law unto himself”…

Matthew 15:

17"Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? 18But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man ‘unclean.’ 19For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander.

What is this"heart’ that you refer to? A person may become a law unto himself but this IMO is not a good thing by definition.
