"Don't forget even though you may stop judging that doesn't mean some of your judgements haven't stuck around..."
That came up for me this weekend! I'm struggling to find the words to express... I can start by saying that I am seeing how intricately linked judgement and self-image are. No. Self-image requires judgment. Ok. I think there's only one way...
I became aware of how the majority of my time is spent thinking about what other people are doing wrong. I honestly never called doing that "judging." I believed that I was simply viewing reality.
But what I'm really trying to say is that when I was in that, I WAS THE JUDGING. There was no separation. It wasn't me doing the judging, it was all one complete identity. ....and then I became aware. "Oh, I'm doing that!" It was me doing that instead of being that.
