calamity regarded as a divine punishment or as a token of divine displeasure. 4 The pronouncing of a deliberate (esp. adverse or
critical) opinion on a person or thing; an opinion so pronounced. 5 In biblical translations: a justice, righteousness b a
divine decree or ordinance; c a sentence or decision in a person’s favour. 6 The formation of an opinion or notion concerning
something by exercising the mind on it; an opinion, an estimate. 7 a The function of the mind by which it arrives at a notion of a
thing; the critical faculty. b Good judgement; discernment. A person having (good) judgement. d Reason, senses, wits. 8 Logic.

Peter: Whenever Vineeto and I talk or write of becoming free
of the Human Condition, we are often seen (judged?) as being judgemental or attacking and not tolerant or respectful of the other’s position.
In considering this, the only sense I make of it is that we are threatening in that we are putting into practice the concept that one can
become free of the Human Condition – i.e. how human beings think, feel, believe and imagine themselves to be and how they are instinctually
programmed by blind nature to function. Now any sensible investigation of the Human Condition involves observation, investigation, comparison,
contemplation, consideration and judgement. One has to come to a conclusion as to what is silly and what is sensible, otherwise the whole
exercise is merely intellectual wanking.
Having made a judgement as to what is best, then action is required – one is
compelled to action, unless one wants to settle for second-best – but that’s another story. So no bleatings of ‘you’re being
judgemental’ will work with me – it’s a furphy that’s been bandied around since morals and ethics were first chiselled in stone and
devised to silence the sensible. ‘Judge ye not’ is a platitude invented by God-men and other charlatans in order that no one would question
the rest of their inane platitudes. It is one of many dimwitticisms, passed off as Guru-wisdom, that have no other meaning or purpose than to
keep their followers and disciples under control, humble, grateful, loyal and, above all, non-thinking.
But if anyone wants to remain as they are, second-rate, rooted in the past, or off in la-la land,
then fine. Somewhere there is a Peter or a Vineeto who might appreciate a bit of ‘judgemental’ straight talking, a first hand account about
becoming free of the Human Condition, what it’s like to challenge all beliefs, what it’s like to leave one’s ‘self’ behind. I
strongly recommend being judgemental – making a judgement, an evaluation, a discernment, a decision, a finding, an appraisal, an assessment,
a conclusion. At the very least one practices thinking, at best it may provoke action, at worst you may be inaccurate and need to re-assess.
This is the process of learning called trial and error. One simply proceeds to what is sensible and what works, and one finds one has
discovered a fact. And one can rely on a fact. It takes a little practice but eventually ‘you’ become redundant in the game as the facts
start to speak for themselves.
