Judgment.
Today we're going to talk about a subject that I've always found very challenging and also Ah,
One that we have to deal with in our day and age in humanity.
We're gonna take a deep dive into judgments.
I think being judgmental is part.
Of what our whole world is going through in this day and age.
I mean,
I think possibly social media.
And when you like something or don't like it on Facebook,
If you give something a heart or if you don't give it a heart,
We are every day now being encouraged to make judgments.
And with what's been happening with COVID-19.
Judgments of what is right and what is wrong and what is bad and what is good,
I have seen become more and more prevalent and divisive.
And judgments can be a very damaging thing.
We make judgments all the time,
And being judgmental is something.
That I'm always working on daily.
I think it's also kind of something about our wanting to feel important.
If we like something or don't like it,
We're sometimes giving vent to our way of thinking,
Or sometimes it's our ego at work.
When we judge someone else,
Sometimes that makes us feel more powerful,
More important.
And I think that also we're seeing this as we watch more TV and media and commercials and see ads in magazines and they did a recent study about Instagram and they found that young people especially young women when they looked at Instagram had a.
I'm more detrimental.
Thoughts and ideas about their own body because they see all these.
Sometimes photoshopped on people showing off how perfect they are.
It's like,
Oh,
Really?
We also,
Of course,
Are judging people on their actions.
And when we're judging someone.
We can do a lot of harm.
Why?
You think,
Well,
You look at it.
Of course,
There's that great quote,
From the Bible,
Judge not lest ye be judged.
And there's something to that.
It's kind of fraught with darkness.
I think if we could see the energy field we send out to people.
When we are judging them,
We might not do that.
It blocks out the light in others.
I like the term you're throwing shade.
Have you heard that?
You're throwing shade on someone.
So when you're judging someone,
You're throwing shade.
What does that say?
You're throwing shades of darkness.
You're blocking their light.
You're blocking their sun.
And there's that old saying that is so true too,
When you point one finger at someone.
Three of those fingers are pointing back at yourself.
The thing is,
It's a habit.
It's a habit that's furthered sometimes by gossiping.
And it's a habit that we sometimes feel like we want to be part of a group to judge something or someone.
But if you look at the whole depths of.
.
.
There's a term that's used in the psychological fields called projection.
Oftentimes when you are indeed pointing one finger at another,
Three fingers are coming back pointed at you.
That is projection.
That means that what you're seeing out there in the world.
Is reflecting what you are thinking and seeing inside yourself.
So think about it every time.
You say something negative or think something judgmental about someone else,
You need to turn it around and take a look at what there is in you.
Now there are some things we can do.
Overcome.
The tendency to judge.
We can realize if we put that intent there to watch,
Be the objective observer,
Monitor.
What you're saying and even thinking.
And let yourself have a red flag.
So when you're saying something negative,
When you're throwing shade.
Just stop.
And take a breath.
And maybe take time when you go into meditation to ask yourself.
What is it in you that needs to be cleared up to be free of those judgments?
And you can indeed program your mind to tell yourself not to say negative things or be judgmental or harm others.
If we choose,
And we can choose,
How we perceive others.
Then we can indeed start sending positive energy towards others.
Appreciate others,
Thank others,
See the good in them.
This,
I think judgment's a world problem.
And I think it's something we all need to face and deal with.
I wrote a prayer about this.
Lord,
Help us to overcome the tendency to judge others.
And allow us all to see the good that's there in you and me.
Let's be free of self-judgment and those inner things that we reject and replace them with unconditional love instead.
Let's stop the disease of darkness that spreads when we speak anything negative.
That is fed by the pain that we feel that separates us from good energy we need.
Words that can bring about the energy that consumes and creates negativity shows our weakness and that's mirrored in our inner room that the light of truth then can reveal.
We are not separate,
But when we pass judgment on what we see,
It's projected right back on you and me.
Lord,
Help us to overcome the tendency to judge others and allow us all to see the good that's there.
Let's be free of self-judgment and the inner things that we reject and replace them with unconditional love instead.
When we speak anything negative that is fed by the pain,
Then we feel that what separates us.
And that is not our truth.
Reason.
That's not what's in our name.
Let's not play that energy in the blame game.
These dark words brings about the energy that consumes and shows us our weaknesses,
Mirrored there in our inner room.
Now let's take a deep breath.
Let's go inside.
Let's feed that good energy.
Breathe in positive energy.
And just let go of any tension.
Let go of anything that might feel out of whack.
And go inside to that place where you have the heart of your goodness inside.
There in your heart of goodness.
Breathe in deep.
Go into that place in your soul where there's no separation.
Go into that part of your soul where you recognize you are part of the whole.
You are one with everything.
And when you see that oneness.
You realize.
That you cannot judge someone else or you are judging yourself.
So let's breathe in that eternal light and let's bathe in the healing energy of that oneness.
And unconditional love.
Let that healing light come into your mind.
Let it heal so you can let go of any old wounds,
Any ideas that you have.
Just let it go.
Breathe that energy into your crown chakra,
Bring it to your third eye.
Clear all the energy in your vision to see that beautiful violet ray.
Allow that energy to come to your throat in aquamarine waves and frequencies.
And now come deep,
Deep,
Deep into your heart,
Into your heart and see the beautiful healing green energy there.
And with that green energy,
Let it blossom with that lovely.
Golden rose in your heart that heals.
And feel that energy spreading down to a beautiful green golden energy in your head.
Third chakra on your second chakra and now come down to the base chakra.
With a lovely rainbow light of peacock blue and ruby red,
That any energy there that needs to be healed,
Be healed.
Breathe that whole energy in and feeling yourself now revitalized,
Renewed,
Restored,
Regenerated with that holy energy of love and light.
Feel how good it is to be free of darkness,
Free of judgment.
Breathe this in.
Absorb it.
Let it be.
And say thank you God and so it is.
