The moment that judgement stops through acceptance of what it is, you are free of the mind. You have made room for love, for joy, for peace.
The mental suffering you create is always some form of non-acceptance, some form of unconscious resistance to what is. On the level of thought, the resistance is some form of judgement. The intensity of the suffering depends on the degree of resistance to the present moment.
Nonresistance, nonjudgment, and nonattachment are the three aspects of true freedom and enlightened living.
There is nothing that strengthens the ego more than being right. Being right is identification with a mental position - a perspective, an opinion, a judgement, a story. For you to be right, of course, you need someone else to be wrong, as so the ego loves to make wrong in order to be right.
Accept the present moment without judgement.
