The document discusses respect and defines it as right evaluation of others based on seeing them as similar to oneself. It identifies under evaluation, over evaluation, and differentiation as forms of disrespect. True respect involves recognizing others have the same purpose and potential as oneself, and seeing how one can understand from or help others based on relative levels of understanding.

Whenever the evaluation is not right, it is disrespect
Respect: Right Evaluation on the basis of Self(I) 1. Purpose I want to live with continuous happiness & prosperity. The other also wants to live with continuous happiness & prosperity. Our purpose is same (on the basis of Natural Acceptance) 2. Program My program is to understand and to live in harmony at all 4 levels. The program of the other is also to understand and to live in harmony at all 4 levels. (Individual, family, society and nature/existence) 3. Potential Desire, Thought & Expectation is continuous in me. I am endowed with Natural Acceptance. Desire, Thought & Expectation is continuous in the other. 4. Competence – On the basis of right evaluation of our mutual competence, I recognize our complementarity and fulfil it: If the other has more understanding, is more responsible than me I am committed to understand from the other If I have more understanding, I am more responsible than the other 1. I live with responsibility with the other, unconditionally, unperturbed by the behaviour of the other 2. I am committed to facilitate understanding in the other (once the other is assured in relationship, and not before that) Self-confidence, ego and Depression Right Evaluation Over Evaluation Under / Otherwise Evaluation
Self Confidence Ego Depression
I am self-referential The other is my The other is my
Differentiation Respect on the basis of Self (I) 1. Our purpose (Natural Acceptance) I evaluate on the basis of body, physical facilities or is same belief (pre conditioning). I compare, compete, 1. Our program is same differentiate… 2. Our potential is same I am different from the other The other is similar to me We are competitors. If the other has more understanding than me - I am committed to understand from the other If I have more understanding 1. I live with responsibility with the other 2. I am committed to facilitate understanding in the other (once the other is assured in relationship, and not before that) We are complementary to each other I make effort to accentuate the difference, to manipulate, exploit the other Sum up Respect is Right Evaluation
Under evaluation, over evaluation or otherwise evaluation is disrespect.
Differentiation is disrespect. Respect on the basis of Self(I) – The other is like me. We are complementary to each other. The only difference is in our level of understanding (how much of our desire, thought & expectation is on the basis of our Natural Acceptance).
If the other has more understanding , he is more responsible than me.
I am committed to understand from the other. If I have more understanding, I am more responsible than the other. 1. I live with responsibility with the other, unconditionally, unperturbed by the behaviour of the other. 2. I am committed to facilitate understanding in the other (once the other is assured in relationship, and not before that).
