UNDERSTANDING WHY NOT TO JUDGE THE OBJECT AS GOOD OR BAD

Singapore Q&A 10.7.2023 (25:08-34:55)

It is better not to judge the object as good or bad because if you think that it’s good, the mind gets attached, and if you think that it’s bad, the mind resists.

How not to think that it is good or bad? It is when the mind understands the meaning of an object. The meaning of object is something that is being known by the mind – it means it is not good or bad and when there is this understanding, the mind becomes equanimous to the experience.

Knowing is the mind and being known is the object. Do you understand this when you practice?
