Judgement

[Ivo Banaco]

Hi Connie,

I couldn't agree more with your thoughts. I am visualizing a consciousness
transformation process where we stop being judgmental (in a negative sense),
at the same time that appears a growing wisdom of discernment which in turn
led to wider circles of embracement and acceptance within us. Eventually we
are in our way to truly (genuine) accept whatever is and arises in this
world, embracing the eternal duality between good vs bad, right or wrong.
There is no one to blame for the misery (we do not become victims of an evil
world), and no one to adore obsessively for glory (we eventually become
independent, centered, and fully responsible for our lives). This does not
mean that we don't have to make choices in life; it means that there are
more freedom in the process, and even more choices became available. Like
you said it "brings about a greater state of peace and unification and
therefore is active and creative".Thanks for that Connie.

Ivo
