‘Judging mind’ has nothing to do with what we might call ‘discerning mind’. Compulsiveness is at the heart, at the core of, ‘judging mind’; and this compulsive quality is a big hindrance to the act of understanding.... ‘Discerning mind’ is an empty mind, whereas ‘judging mind’, on the contrary, is clogged up with opinions and attachment to those opinions. I think we could say that ‘judging mind’ is a mind which always already knows; all the time it already knows. So there is something solid, something hard, in the judging mind. In the discerning mind, however, there is something soft and free, light and flowing.
