A judgmental attitude always gets one into trouble.
When we make a judgment we become irritated and angry.
Irritation and anger is a symptom of our fear.
We should ask ourselves when we are becoming judgmental, "What am I afraid of."
On the path of the ego, there are numerous things we fear.
On the the path of the spirit, there is nothing to fear because we realize that the things on the path of the ego aren't real. The things on the path of the ego are interpretations and meanings that we have made up.
Is the glass half full or half empty?
Drop the judgment. It is what it is. In this awareness there is great peace and bliss.
The idea of the Perennial Philosophy of Aldous Huxley leads one to the idea that God is too big for any one religion. How is it that sometimes people outgrow their religion of childhood? James Fowler, among others, has mapped out a model of spiritual development. Osho says that a person cannot enter into a spiritual life until he/she rebels against childish religious beliefs. Notes On A Spiritual Life intends to explore deeper understandings of an authentic spiritual life.
