Judging

 Why do people judge others when they know nothing about their story ? Do they feel superior ? Because if they do, they must think again ! They themselves have plenty to hide and are as imperfect as anyone else.

The main crux of the issue is here. The inner eye is blinded. So, we can see only others and their behaviour. This is the most dangerous part of ignorance: to think you know everything when you know nothing ! In fact, you don’t even want to know anything because the prejudice is so intense.

We all look for peace by shunning people and getting within a safe cacoon. But this is just not possible. Because sooner or later, the butterfly will emerge and will have to face strong winds and extreme weather conditions. But alas ! Where is wisdom in the wake of ignorance ?

The biggest burden that Mother Earth carries today is the human being.

Dependability

 Humans survive on their core beliefs.  If those are negative about someone, they generate hate. If they are positive, they generate  caring, affection . BUT , only until such time as their core belief changes.

Therefore dependability is a quality that goes along with commitment , not with core beliefs only because they are changeable in nature. They are also debilitating to the self if they are not the right ones.

We really need to be very careful with such beliefs . They tend to hurt, result in bad karma and mar relationships.

Actually, we don’t accept people and relationships as they are. The element of tolerance and forgiveness is missing. And I think this is because every soul on this earth is damaged. So they talk of others being damaged but cannot face the fact that they themselves are damaged and don’t have enough love to give. Everything then becomes a show for the outside world. And relationships are chosen according to what they can accept, not who they can love despite their imperfections.

Love is the only core intrinsic to humans but it’s purity and it’s selflessness is always a question .

It is enough to go ahead and heal yourself in every way and remain within your space, your energy, without expectations . Silence is golden as they say. Silence of the mind and heart AND the brain when it is not required for daily activity.

Parameters

 There is always something and often many things we need to work on within ourselves. I agree that everyone is not motivated equally and at the same time,  to work on themselves. Only humans can have weaknesses and limitations. The larger picture of the agenda of karma we carry into this life determines our nature, our reactions and pretty much our psyche.

But we flounder when it comes to learning our lessons. The universe provides ample opportunities for this though.

Sometimes, I wonder what  all the hate and conflict does to the insides of people who practice these actively. I think it only burns and harms the practitioner and no one else. Yes, people react negatively to hate because the biggest criminal wants to be loved at the end of the day. And even words of cruelty and hate have the power to kill.

It is so mind boggling to see people make such negative choices for themselves. But karma has a large role to play. We don’t know it. Therefore, even if we don’t know its extent, the parameters of living must generally be based on goodness, gratitude and forgiveness.

We tend to cut the branch that we are sitting on, with ingratitude to our Creator and harshness to the world. Nothing good really comes out of this.
