The day the judge retired

 I do not expect,

I do not plan.

I just watch events happening,

knowing them to be unreal.

Nisargadatta Maharaj

 

When we say spirituality is a judgement free zone, does that mean that everything is allowed, even if it is obviously in conflict with our spiritual advancement?

 

Well, just watch! Who was the judge who claimed “feeling, action, thought” (fat) was keeping us from being spiritually fit? Can we just observe “feeling-action-thought” without calling it fat?

 

Nisargadatta Maharaj once concluded that the fruit falls when it is ripe. The moment when the feeler, the doer, the thinker disappears the judge retires too. The case against us has been dismissed.
