"The junkie shooting up heroine shouldnt feel bad even if he mugs some one to get the cash for his next fix. Cause it will cause stress on his body and wont do him any good. Best not beat himself up about it. Keep using and dont think its wrong cause you may feel bad that you do something wrong"
If someone is sensitive to self and becomes more aware of how they feel they will feel bad about doing negative things.
I am not saying we shouldn't have feelings.
Judging someone else makes them defensive and they put up walls. I notice that when I am defensive and coming from a place of fear and am less aware of what is inside. Judging projects fear and defensiveness.
Doing "good" according to someone elses value system that is learned from praise and punishment is not acting from own free will (most people can't) and is shaming.
learning to "...experience the consequences of our actions..." and becoming more sensitive with self, I believe we find that some actions lead to pain and some to peace and quite naturally we prefer peace.
The shame and fear covers and the performance we learn from praise and pu8nishment, leads us to seeking the coke... as we realize the thirst more and more we realize that coke doesn't quench it and if we realize that are actions are not bringing us greater peace we start to want to move towards peace..
Judgment projects fear and promotes the circle or shame.
Love offers opportunity to experience self and I believe the deeper parts of self long for love and peace.
