How to
Respect
Others

We all want to be respected, but at the same time, we live constantly judging others every second. 

How can we have a mind that is absent of judgments, a mind that respects everyone for who they are?

Read Claire’s article, and join us at Dublin Meditation to learn how to become this true mind!

How can we respect others?

To respect others, one should not judge a person based on a single aspect of this person that he could perceive at the moment. 

A person’s current facial expressions, words, accents, and behaviors are the results of the life one has lived.

Our lives are formed based on the habits we inherited from our parents and ancestors, and the environment (people, places, cultures, laws, rules, customs, etc.).

In our lives, the things that we could achieve were far fewer than what we could achieve. 

Consequently, everyone lives with a certain pain in their heart.

Some people live showing it, and others turn a blind eye to it.

If someone says straight off something that doesn’t suit the situation or does something that makes others feel uncomfortable, that’s because of what the person’s life has been like, and in fact, it means that this person is in pain. 

If we open our hearts to recognize such things, each person’s pain will heal, and it will bring changes to this world.

I don’t deserve to judge anyone in any way, because I do not know what kind of seed has been planted at the beginning and what kind of nutrients were given to it.  

The current ‘self’ that exists is made from the seed that I was born with, and the nutrients that were provided. These were not my choices. And thus, we all have different looks and minds as a result. 

If we can understand that, we must learn to have a bigger perspective than now and become mature people who embrace the world with big minds. 

I can respect others only when I do not judge them from my perspective, with what little I know from my limited knowledge of them.  I may be judging people by looking at only one aspect of them without knowing what kind of story they have. 

We should have a mind that is able to see others just the way they are. 

Everyone has their own story and pain, something that must have given valuable lessons to each person about life. 

During our journey on this planet earth, as we are all together on the quest to find the answer to the ultimate question, “Who am I?”, we all deserve respect from each other. 

When we come to have true mind, we can truly respect each other and also find the answer to the ultimate question of life. Let’s all find that Truth within together!
