"Judge not, lest ye be judged!"

A neo-Advaita version of Jesus' famous dictum might run something like this, "Judge not others, lest you also judge yourself!"

  1. Rajneesh once said that "Judge Not" is perfect Zen, and the addition of "lest ye be judged" proves that Jesus was talking to Jews, because he had to bargain with them.

  2. Perhaps "Judge not!" belongs on the blog "Where Can One Stand," since no "one" is truly in a position to judge "another."

  3. that's interesting, I haven't really been able to discern the conceptual distinction between the two blogs. Untruths is for pointers oriented less towards the sense of an individual?

  4. I haven't been able to keep to this but, "Where can one stand?" points to the impossibility of truly referencing "What IS." Thus, statements made about "What IS" are necessarily "Untruths."
