Agreed. I think there's a point where simple intellect does come into the mix and using intuition more to carefully guage the situation.

Hi Amit: I agree with you, up to a certain point. I know someone who acts out of good intentions most of the time, but she constantly gets it wrong because she fails to properly assess the situation. It's like she lives in her own little world and doesn't bother to try to understand the wolds of others. In her case, I think she's probably generating some bad karma.

I like the idea of sending everyone we meet a silent blessing. It silents the judging voice and helps us focus on the positive.

Great post Marelisa, what do you think about intention? To give an example, it's like doing a good thing but getting chastised for it. It's happened to me on occasion, my intentions were good, to help someone by providing advice for example, and that advice may be ill-taken or ill-received.

I personally believe that if your intentions are good, you are not actually accountable for the response but you then can choose how to respond.
