Judging others and also of oneself


Judging Others


"Don't judge, so that you won't be judged. For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but don't consider the beam that is in your own eye? Or how will you tell your brother, 'Let me remove the speck from your eye;' and behold, the beam is in your own eye? You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother's eye. "Don't give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.
Matthew 7:1-6 Full Chapter

=============================

Although i am not a christian, this verse holds much meaning to my heart.

Many a times we have our principles and we tend to see others in different light. By their actions, by their thoughts. Is this person handsome, ugly, pretty, fat by appearances.? Is his actions good or bad? is he corrupt or oppressive?

"Do not judge me." once a client told me and ask of me. She was a lady who was secretly meeting another guy behind the back of her husband.

The feeling of betrayal is very strong and being once betrayed by my ex girl friend it did stir up feelings of judgement in me that the lady client was not a good lady.

However, i supressed my personal judgement and told her that what i speak is what the cards show me. I do not judge when i meet my clients. It is also to see them in different light and in their own circumstances....

Normally when one turns to fortune telling or the tarot, one is quite despaired and needs help.

I do not judge but advise them what the cards says. it is the most important rule of Tarot reading. not to judge while doing the reading.....

I hope all tarot readers will be able to do this....
