You have no idea of the tremendous release and deep peace that comes from meeting yourself and your brothers totally without judgment. When you recognize what you are and what your brothers are, you will realize that judging them in any way is without meaning. In fact, their meaning is lost to you precisely because you are judging them. All uncertainty comes from the belief that you are under the coercion of judgment. You do not need judgment to organize your life, and you certainly do not need it to organize yourself. In the presence of knowledge all judgment is automatically suspended, and this is the process that enables recognition to replace perception. T-3.VI.3:1-6

If you would have peace, drop the judgment and enter into the space of unconditional love. The Universalists taught this a few centuries ago in contrast to the Calvinists who preached “hellfire and brimstone.” To this day Unitarian Universalists have believed in the inherent worth and dignity of every person. Affirming and promoting this principle is the first principle of the UU tradition.
In Alcoholics Anonymous it is suggested, in the twelfth step, that the AA members carry the message of spiritual awakening of the program to others. When one knows that they are unconditionally loved by their creator the intrinsic motivation is to share this peace and joy with others.
Today, it is suggested that we set our judgment aside and bask in the unconditional love of our Transcendent Source.
