>> ‘The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.’ — Jiddu Krishnamurti, Indian Philosopher
First of all, he was a mystic than being a philosopher.
The quality of observing is a by-product, a consequence.
If you directly try to achieve this by using your mind based on some moral principles or disciplines mentioned through this article you are bound to get frustrated. It is like one thought fighting with other thought but in the end, it leads to the creation of a chain of many complex thoughts entangled. But because it appeals more many people fall prey.
I see many such articles focus more on the mind and how to change thoughts. This article is nothing but an offshoot of a limited part of psychology. A real inner transformation happens when you experientially go beyond thoughts. Psychology is just a temporary cure. Vipassana can help you in a true experiential manner.
Jobs such as software engineering and others which requires constant use of thinking and sitting at one place throughout the day makes the mind stronger than other faculties of a human being. it needs to be balanced with exercise (to remove physical and to certain extent mental blocks ) and proper meditation guidance.
