Patience

A wise person pointed out to me, "just because you are calm, it doesn't mean you are not judging."

Patience. Just because we are patient, just because we are willing to wait, it doesn't mean that we are not silently, calmly, patiently judging...

Patience is a gateway to non-judgement. Check it out o ye patient ones. Are we really in a state of non-judgement, or do we silently judge away from our state of inner calm.

Reflecting on this and observing myself and the very wise person, i came to some realizations. Yes. Just because a person is calm, they may still be judging. They may still carry a charge. A button can still be pushed.  And the contrary is also true. Just because someone is acting out, being dramatic, doesn't mean they are in a judgmental state. They may not be carrying any charge. In fact, there may be a case now and then where the calm one is actually judging the dramatic one even though it may look like the dramatic one is "less conscious" than the calm one.

So, don't judge a book by its cover, cuz unless you are the book, you probably don't really have a clue as to what is inside.
