Judgment - Words in A course in Miracles


   Maybe the hardest concept to understand is the idea that judgment, as the world sees it, is part of the problem; the solution is to give it up completely.
The choice to judge rather than to know is the cause of the loss of peace. Judgment is the process on which perception but not knowledge rests.... In the end it does not matter whether your judgment is right or wrong. Either way you are placing your belief in the unreal. This cannot be avoided in any type of judgment, because it implies the belief that reality is yours to select  from.   T-3.VI.2:1,2,10-12.
God's teachers do not judge. To judge is to be dishonest, for to judge is to assume a position you do not have.Judgment without self-deception is impossible. ... Judgment implies a lack of trust, ...  No teacher of God can judge and hope to learn.           M-4.III.1:1-3,6,11.
It is possible to look on reality without judgment and merely know that it is there.               T-3.VI.9:6.
The holy instant is not an instant of creation, but of recognition. For recognition comes of vision and suspended judgment.   T-21.II.8:2,3.
Judgment is symbolic because beyond perception there is no judgment. ... The choice to judge rather than to know is the cause of the loss of peace.      T-3.VI.1:3/2:1.
The giving up of judgment, the ... prerequisite for hearing God's Voice ... Our curriculum trains for the relinquishment of judgment as the necessary condition of salvation.     M-9.2:4,7.
