Today, if the ego knocks on your mind’s door and demands that you judge yourself or others, consider trying the following instead:
1 – Before every interaction, remind yourself of your goal for the day: To become a reflection and representative of the state of peace.
2 – Instead of judging others, as the ego has trained you to do, offer them gratitude, silently or not, for being part of your healing process. This process is helping you recall that it is you, not the ego, who should be in control of your thinking and thus of your mind and life.
3 – Practice offering the opposite of what the ego demands. If the ego demands judgment, offer forgiveness. If it insists on condemnation, offer compassion. If it demands that you curse others, then silently pray for their healing, health, peace and joy.
4 – Acknowledge to yourself that no matter how unpleasant the ego says that the situation is, the choice of love over fear is always available. So too are the choices of forgiveness over judgment, compassion over condemnation, and peace over pain. You have free will and thus no longer need to buy into the ego’s lies as true.
5 – Throughout the day, continue to remind yourself to align with your goal of peace. When you are aligned with, representing and expressing your peaceful nature, you are in essence present and in the conscious state. When you are allowing the ego’s judgment-centered mindset to lead you, you are in essence not present, unaware and asleep to your true nature. If you notice this, use it as a trigger to take some deep breaths and re-align with your peaceful, loving nature.
All glory to God.
Peace, Health, Happiness, Love, Laughter, and Light.
