Dearest Self, Pure Soul of all brothers and sisters,

 

As Amma's words suggested in some previous post, let us acknowledge our

mistakes and repent !

 

 

It is due to our past conditioning that we label and judge others.

 

To truly not judge is not that easy.

 

Because, even to point out that someone is judging is yet another

judgment.

 

Even to point out that we should do selfless-service, or be more

devotional or more japa, etc

 

is yet, in a sense, another judgment. And even these words can be

interpreted by someone as judgmental.

 

Even though I'm doing my best not to be judgmental, but simply to

express my best understanding at this time about a very basic spiritual

principle taught by Jesus, Buddha, Amma, Peace Pilgrim and many others.

 

Dayamritaji, many times has told me that it's best to " keep

quiet " much of the time rather that point out mistakes of others. Of

course as a parent or teacher, etc it may appropriate, but even then it

needs to be done with compassion and understanding.

 

According to " Attitudinal Healing " all our responses and

reactions are either from a source of Love or a source

 

of Fear. So, as our thoughts and feelings arise, let us be aware and

discriminate their source: Love or fear, Formless or form, Self or

non-Self, Real or illusion. Let us all pray for strength to respond only

from Love and not react out of fear.

 

In past whatever judgments and labels we used against each other, let us

from Love forgive each other.

 

And I sincerely ask, the pure soul of everyone, for forgiveness for all

my faults and weaknesses and any inappropriate words that may have hurts

others in the past.

 

om santi,

 

amarnath

Maybe if " ji " would admit his own mistakes more readily, it would

inspire others to also be humble enough to

learn-from-mistakes-and-shortcomings. Instead, there's a bureaucracy

of not being perfect, yet never wrong.

 

There's a difference between reckless criticism and needed information

for growth. Expecting his direction to come solely from the physical

guru is ridiculous.
