"When your watcher becomes a judger, do not judge the judger; simply return to the space of witnessing, allowing thoughts to arise and pass without resistance."
According to Osho, when your watcher turns into a judger, don't judge the judger—simply notice it and again fall back into witnessing. Let thoughts and judgments arise and pass without suppression or resistance. Repeatedly return to the watcher. Over time, non-identification weakens the judger; its knocks grow feebler until it disappears and the witnessing becomes centered.
When you catch yourself judging, just notice that too and gently come back to watching—don’t fight it, and it will fade with patience.
