Thought 10 - I Act in the Knowing

To relinquish judgment does not mean that you do not recognize dysfunction and unconsciousness when you see it. It means “being the knowing” rather than “being the reaction’’ and the judge. You will then either be totally free of reaction or you may react and still be the knowing, the space in which the reaction is watched and allowed to be.
Instead of fighting the darkness, you bring in the light. Instead of reacting to delusion, you see the delusion yet at the same time look through it. Being the knowing creates a clear space of loving presence that allows all things and all people to be as they are.

I was once asked why I don’t participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I’ll be there.
— Mother Teresa

The Art of Taking Action 

As I go with the flow, I am an observer. I observe my world around me. As a witness, I am passive in my emotions: they are in motion with the universe. I am carried by the waves. I am active too. I think, and speak, and act. I am strong. My strength is grounded in peace—in eternity. My world has light. My world has darkness too. I stay in the light. When I see dysfunction, I relinquish judgement. When I see unconsciousness, I rise above, and I do not despair. I try to understand. I do what I can do to the best of my ability. I love unconditionally. I free myself of the need and the impulse to react. I breath out judgement and let it go. I give space and become a watcher. I am unattached. I move in the highest place. I do not fight the darkness; I bring in the light. I do not react to confusion, I live in clarity and my clearness radiates as spokes of a wheel. With my knowing, I create a clear space of loving presence. I allow all things, and all people to be as they are. In this way, I am free. In living, I AM making the world a better place not by reacting to the fires set by others, but by staying true to hue and creating the life I love.
