We need to lay our judgments down before the wisdom of the Deep Heart.
Judging obscures the quality of our attention.
If we are in judgment of our experience, we can’t clearly think, see, listen, or feel.
As a result, we can’t actually meet our experience as it is.
The filter is too thick; the noise is too loud.
If you have traveled on the spiritual path even a little way, you have probably come across some version of “Love what is” — a reminder that you should accept your experience as it is.
However, this teaching easily becomes another injunction.
Notice the should in the earlier sentence — it is always a red flag that the judging mind is at work.
The conditioned mind cannot accept unconditionally.
