過早的評斷，是我們對新事物一種主觀的看法，或者是慣性的反應。有些時候評斷是有效的，例如選擇產品和伴侶，或者對危險的反應等等。但評斷往往會阻礙學習和思考，尤其阻礙我們了解事物的真相。
評判來自我們的固有觀念，或者情緒化的反應，而不是來自對事物的認識。評判就像風吹過湖面，使湖水起伏，讓月亮在水中的倒影變得模糊不清。
每個人的內心都像一個湖泊，如果充斥著各種想象，就像湖底帶有各種顏色，湖面佈滿漣漪，反映的東西就會失實和扭曲。如果在思考中加入各種主觀的想法，我們就會錯過事物的本質。唯有消除評斷，讓心境平靜下來，才能讓天空中的月亮清晰地反映在我們的心湖上。
對於存在的事物，我們不需要去尋找或詮釋它的含義。例如看到一朵花，我們可以尋找它能開放的原因和條件，如果認為它代表著美好或醜惡，就是試圖去詮釋它。
在深入認識之前詮釋一件事物，就是過早的評斷。一旦作出這樣的評斷，我們的頭腦就會產生僵化的觀念，而難以吸收事物帶來的知識。花朵有自己的存在價值，只代表自己的本質，不需要我們去詮釋它。
接受事物的本來面貌，才能繼續探究它的真相。過早的評斷是一種無意識的抗拒形式。如果用這種評斷來抵擋新觀點、新思維，甚至用來抗拒與自己不同的文化和價值觀，將會限制我們的視野，阻礙我們成長。
雖然評斷是我們觀察事物的初步反應，但只有那些能夠在瞬間恢復開放心態的人，才能獲得更多的知識。只要我們停止評斷，就能細心地觀察事物，從現象中理解它們的本質，因為事物的本質始終包含在它所顯示的現象中。因此必須對評斷產生警覺，不要被它阻礙我們從真相中獲得智慧。

The path to Tranquility (128) Premature judgment is a kind of resistance
Premature judgment is our subjective view of new things, or our inertial reaction. There are times when judgment is valid, such as in choosing products and partners, or in responding to dangers. But this kind of judgment often hinders learning and thinking, and especially hinders us from understanding the truth of things.
Premature judgment come from our inherent concepts, or our emotional thinking, not from our understanding of things. This kind of judgment is like the wind blowing across the surface of a lake, making the water undulate and blurring the reflection of the moon in the water.
Everyone's mind is like a lake. If it is filled with various imaginations, just like the different colors at the bottom of the lake and ripples on the surface, the reflection will be unrealistic and distorted. If we add various subjective ideas in our thoughts, we will miss the essence of things. Only by eliminating the judgment and letting our minds become calm can the moon in the sky be reflected clearly in our lake of heart.
For things that exist, we do not need to search for or interpret their meaning. For example, when we see a flower, we can search for the reasons and conditions that caused it to blossom. If we think it represents beauty or ugliness, we are just trying to interpret it.
Interpreting something before understanding it deeply is premature judgment. Once we make such a judgment, our minds will create rigid ideas, and it will be difficult to absorb the knowledge brought about by things. Flowers have their own inherent value and only represent their own essence, without the need for us to interpret them.
Accepting the true appearance of things, allows us to continue exploring their truth. Premature judgment is an unconscious form of resistance. If we use this kind of judgment to resist new perspectives, new thinking, or even to resist cultures and values that are different from our own, it will limit our vision and hinder our growth.
Although judgment is our initial response to observing things, only those who can instantly switch to an open mindset can gain more knowledge. As long as we stop judging, we can observe things carefully and understand their essence from the phenomenon, because the essence of a thing is always contained in the phenomenon it displays. So we must be wary of judgment and not let it prevent us from gaining wisdom from the truth.
