Thank you, Tammy.

[Linda alexander]

Majority of thinkers are not brave to say what they have to say ultimately, really liked your you tube video with excellent presentation, may be a snow ball effect stem from those I hope

[Pryde Foltz]

Thank you, Linda … yes some melting hearts are needed.

You always inspire me...my friend. Hope life is treating you kind!

Ty, AA. It is so nice to see you around these parts:)

[Alfred Kukitz]

Judgement in most people's minds is automonous without the smallest kernel of awareness they are being judgmental.

I pose this to you Pryde. If you look at your feet you will witness the beginning of a relative universe and opposites attract in a relative universe. Thus boy meets girl, evil meets good, rich meets poverty and so on.

Regards,

Al

Thank you, Alfred. At this point I am trying to move beyond dualistic thinking … duality is an invention and tool of the limited human mind … I try to see things more abstractly and from multiple views:)

[Alfred Kukitz]

Well said! We need more minds like yours.

[Pryde Foltz]

I am working on it :)

[NoelHC]

An interesting viewpoint, and a challenge to try meet up to the standard you want to achieve. Not saying we should not try to be free of judgement, but it can be difficult.

[Pryde Foltz]

Thank you, Noel. Oh yes … it is a challenge … lol ... I think it is more of a matter of knowing when you are judging and not allowing it to influence your behaviour toward hate … and once you recognize that you are judging it is easier to moderate your behaviour over all.

[NoelHC]

May I be excused from not judging the morons on the freeway driving too slowly? ; )

[Pryde Foltz]

Humour is a step in the right direction:)

[Einstein Noodle]

have to say yep .. its grasping .. but there i go judging things again ;) if i had a group around me your Vlog would spark some good conversation .. i think the greatest example given to mankind (in the all inclusive sense of the word) is in the words and short life of Jesus Christ .. turning the other cheek takes more than i can bare .. i will never sit by as my family, friends and friendly strangers are put at risk by bullies, robbers, murderers and rapists etc. .. i will use all at my disposal to stop them with all the force necessary .. unfortunately i am stuck in the world in which we live .. and transcendence won't greet me until death ... at least i hope it will ;)) great stuff Pryde!

Ty, E. I do not suggest that we do not deal with anti-social behaviour only that we not judge for the sake of judging and if we must act … sometimes turning the other cheek is the most effective action … then we do so with compassion and a overriding philosophy that we are all part of the whole. Gandhi followed a similar philosophy and if that was not a man of action I don't know if there ever has been:0

[Einstein Noodle]

there are many examples where pacifism has come out victorious .. no doubt about it .. but far many more in which the action was lost on the intended pupil .. and people slaughtered :( and i do understand what you are saying about judging ... and it is so true!

[willweb]

I think I know those two. :) I will check it out in a bit. G+ following.

[Pryde Foltz]

TY … willweb … your neighbours:)

[willweb]

That's who that is....

[wordman]

well I am proud to be a mere gesture in a large playing field

[Pryde Foltz]

Wordman, be no judge-judge:)
