The Mirror

Let the heart become like a mirror.  A mirror shows just what is in front of it.  The mirror does not judge, but reveals only what it sees reflected in it.  If I look at someone or something and make an opinion,  from ego-consciousness, I uplift or demean what I see.  I don’t see it except with judgment that clouds what I see.  This clouding is what makes for duality, what I see separate from me.  This is at the route of racism, sexism, and differentiation as in ethnicity.  There are differences but they need not be judged.  Simply seen for what they are.  That is why meditation is important if it gets the ego out of the way or at least into the background.
