Can someone be Judged?

How many times in life have we come across situations where we would have to judge a person to make a critical decision in our life?
Friends, Spouse, Doctor, Hair Stylist.

Well although some of these we do judge, there are some which we can't are are forced into our lives: Dad, Mom, The bus driver, All the vehicle drivers on the road for that matter heh.

And then comes the real question: how well can you judge a person? Who would have thought back then that the technologies of two high school drop outs like Bill and Steve would run the world now? Any takers?

In my opinion, you cannot judge a book by its cover, neither can you judge it by its content; after all the book is just a product of a pretty resourceful mind. Point being: the book cannot be judged at all.

Quite often (I'd rather say its pretty obvious) a person is judged by his past deeds. Hmm, how good is that?
How far can you look into his past? Especially in this age of swindle and unrest the best option would be to choose the right person for the job by what he is then and not by what he was before, and then simply trust the process. Odds of getting the job done: I'd say it depends on how good you've been to people who put their trust on you.

The Toy

I imagined this as I sat waiting for the bus to arrive on a cold sunday night.

I closed my eyes for a moment and observed within.
What was I? What is happening?

I realized something weird. I saw myself as a being gifted with this toy.
A toy that can be controlled and customized to my choice. I could do anything with it.

I have been playing with it for 23 years now without recognizing that it is just a toy and not me.

Its time to put it to good use as it will not last long. It has been exposed to polluting environment both gross and subtle.

I've not made the right use of it yet.

Let me try and understand what is going on.




I use the toy to make money. I use the money to repair the toy and make it work. I use it to repair others' toys and keep them working. But all this while, I have failed to realize that I am not paying attention to the user of the toy. Keep in mind, the user of the toy is not its owner. There is just a single owner and he owns all the toys and its users as well.


User has to know that there are users behind the working of other toys.
Behind all the users is a unique Creator who is the Owner.


The user of the toy is not gaining much. He infact spends all his life trying to play with his toy and others toys. He is a loser if he doesn't realize that he is something other than just flesh and blood. There is a big beautiful world beyond the flesh, blood, love, emotions and miseries; the origin of life, name it whatever you want, but that is where you belong.
