220 - Sources of Shame #5 - Judgmentalism

When we become judgmental towards ourselves or others we are feeling some shame, usually unaware of it, and are avoiding the recognition and feeling of shame by judging. This is another form of shamelessness which can work to relieve our feeling of shame only temporarily and leads to more shame.
Peace,

  1. I feel that. Diverting the shame only delays the inevitable upsurge of future shame feelings. It is like putting a bill on the bottom of the bill pile and trying/hoping to forget it! It comes due anyway!
