This is the Yin Yang sign and it’s definitely one of my favourites. It’s the main symbol of the ancient Taoists and it represents the polarities of the Universe. Hot, cold. Love, hate. Power, weakness.
Don’t judge.
That’s the Mindkido lesson here. There’s a constant play of creation and destruction going on. Energy never stands still. That means it has to go from dark to light and back again. Joy and sadness are two sides of the same amulet. It’s the same energy, but it’s manifested in a different way. So right and wrong don’t exist. They are man made. Created by logic, while the whole of existence isn’t logic at all.

NO DRIVES, NO COMPULSIONS, NO NEEDS, NO ATTRACTIONS: THEN YOUR AFFAIRS ARE UNDER CONTROL. YOU ARE A FREE MAN.
EASY IS RIGHT. BEGIN RIGHT AND YOU ARE EASY. CONTINUE EASY AND YOU ARE RIGHT. THE RIGHT WAY TO GO EASY IS TO FORGET THE RIGHT WAY AND FORGET THAT THE GOING IS EASY.
Nowadays we are all learning fast reading, so you’ve probably read this thinking “duh I can write a stupid philosophical text like that too!”
Don’t do it. Be fully aware while letting these words slowly vibrate deep in your centre. Because they hold a strong message. OSHO describes it perfectly in his book “When The Shoe Fits”.
Think about it. Why should you judge if you are deeply in love with yourself? What’s the use? It doesn’t matter anyway. If you love yourself you don’t need anything, except your basic needs. Your body is evanescent, so you need to maintain it. Your awareness is immortal, so it needs no maintenance. It simply is. Judgement just destroys it.
By finding love, truth, security and peace within yourself, there’s no need to judge anymore. Because your judgement is a mirror. Whenever you think negative thoughts about anyone, or a situation, it is a negative thought against yourself. You are not satisfied with yourself.
Learn to listen to that deep inner voice that blames everyone and let nature take over. That voice can make the most beautiful emotions erupt from your centre. Whenever you feel like judging, listen to the voice and understand WHY you are judging.
EVERYBODY JUDGES. By learning to understand the polarities, you can detect these judgements and transform them into positive thoughts. And don’t blame yourself for being negative. Just notice it and transform it. Let it out! You will find that judgement is poison for your being. It destroys your love, passion and deep emotions.
Without judgement there is pure love, passion, anger, sadness, happiness and total honesty. It’s the real deal..
