4-14 “Judge not, then, the karmic path walked by another”
--------------------
> Judge not, then, the karmic path walked by another. Envy not success, nor pity failure, for you know not what is success or failure in the soul’s reckoning.
>
> Call not a thing calamity, nor a joyous event, until you decide, or witness, how it is used. For is a death a calamity if it saves the lives of thousands? And is a life a joyous event if it has caused nothing but grief?
>
> Yet even this you should not judge, but keep always your own counsel, and allow others theirs.
>
> (CWG 1:27)

Conversations with God teaches that we should not judge another person’s life as good or bad.
Though each person walks a different path, all are ultimately on a journey toward the Divine.
From outward appearances alone, it is impossible to know the intention of another soul.
Until the moment of the soul’s reckoning—what we call death—we cannot truly determine what is success and what is failure.
Even what appears to be failure in worldly terms may, for that soul, bring about profound growth.
This teaching resonates with the words of the New Testament:
“Do not judge, or you too will be judged” (Matthew 7:1).
