Taken from the book The Four Revelations of Dr. Alberto Villoldo, this
practice is part of the first revelation.
To practice not judging, we must transcend our limited
beliefs, even those we have about good and evil.
We make sense of the world by judging situations as "good" or
"Bad" according to rules defined by our culture. These rules
They constitute our moral code. But an Earth Guardian is amoral.
That does not mean that it is immoral, but simply is not governed by
traditions The Guardian believes it is important to part with this type
of judgments and maintain their ability to discern.
When you practice not judging, you refuse to automatically follow the
Opinion of others in any situation. By doing this, you start to
have a sense of ethics that transcends the traditions of our
weather. This is important today, when media images of
communication have become more compelling than reality, and
our values - freedom, love, etc. - are reduced to slogans and
empty words.
When you refuse to collaborate with the consensual vision, you acquire a
different perspective. You discover what freedom means to you to
personal level, and that is not what politicians tell in their good
rehearsed speeches. You understand that freedom is much more than power

problem we have at hand, not only from the literal level of our
body, but from the highest level of perception we can.
We allow ourselves to accept the unknown, along with its infinities
possibilities.
A few years ago, for example, a friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer of
prostate. Fortunately, at that time he lived with a healer, who
He said: «You don't have cancer; your x-rays only show some spots that
In time they will heal. After a month, those spots could be
healed
If my friend had described those spots as "cancerous" and woven a
story around them, he would have become a "cancer patient."
If I had accepted this literal story about your illness, I would be
condemned to become a statistic - where appropriate, to be part of the
40% of patients who are cured or 60% who do not.
Your chances would have been reduced to become probabilities,
because, knowing that he was losing, he would not have been able to
Imagine within 40% of those who are cured. That's why I teach my

Engraved in your mind and become a prophecy that fulfills itself.
Recently, a woman named Alyce called to ask for a consultation with
Marcela, who is part of our staff. Alyce had made a
mammogram and a lump had been found in a chest. Marcela le
asked if he wanted me to start working with her before the biopsy,
to try to influence the results, or if you preferred to wait until
after. Alyce chose the first option. The following week, he received a
Call from your doctor. He told him that they had made a mistake, they had
confused his mammogram with that of another person, and his was
perfectly normal! So our stories not only influence
our way of seeing life, but also in the "real world" - in this
case, curing a situation that had already happened!
We can always create a mythical story about our trip, a
history that helps us grow, learn and heal. After all,
we may not be able to alter the spots on an x-ray, but we can
heal our soul and begin to educate us finally in the lessons that
We have come to learn in this world.
Our lesson may be to slow down and appreciate the people that we
surround, stop clinging to an existence that we have lived as
sleepwalkers because we believed that we should live our lives in a certain way
shape; or, from the perspective of the hummingbird, these spots can be a
warning call for us to make the changes we've been
avoiding.
We have created great stories around cancer, AIDS and others
diseases, but not around other ailments. If the doctor tells us that
we don't have a parasite, for example, most of us don't get to
think of the millions of people around the world who die because
of infections caused by parasites or begin to distress with the
Idea that he will die. We have not built any history around

In other words, who better to help an alcoholic than someone who
is in recovery, which recognizes the lies that the alcoholic tells
himself and who knows the courage it takes to overcome this
addiction? Who better to help a sullen and angry teenager than
an adult whose adolescence was marked by rebellion, the
resentment and insecurity, but who managed to heal himself?
