Are you ready to live Beyond the Five Sense?  Learn How Here: www.seatofthesoul.com/beyondthefivesensescourse An unprecedented new consciousness is transforming the human species, and even everyday experiences can open the door to greater awareness. In this episode, Gary Zukav takes a common situation - being called for jury duty - and explores the deeper spiritual question it raises: Is it my duty to judge my peers? Gary explains that it is never our responsibility to judge another person. Judgment creates painful consequences for ourselves. In jury duty, however, you are not asked to judge a person - you are asked to evaluate their actions against a specific standard: the law. The larger lesson is to separate the person from the action, responding to harmful behaviors without condemning the individual. Ultimately, the path of authentic power means experiencing life’s painful moments with courage, while choosing love over fear. This shift allows us to engage responsibly in the world without stepping into judgment or creating new painful karma.
