King Dhritarashtra is blinded by his attachment to his sons, and he has completely overlooked the mis-deeds of his sons. We can judge others correctly, but if anything is ours , then our judgement gets clouded.
Dhyana : Identify the six inner enemies (desire, anger, greed, jealousy, blind attachment, pride) , and the impact of those emotions on your body. Similarly Identify the six opposing positive qualities, and their impact on your body. Bring to your mind an instance in your life where you underwent any of the following six emotions (desire, anger, greed, jealousy, blind attachment, pride) and remember your behaviour and the impact of that emotion on your mind and body. Similarly remember an instance in your life when you were (loving, happy, giving & sharing, appreciative, letting go, humble) and remember your behaviour and the impact of that emotion on your body and mind.

Identification of each of the negative emotion and its impact on you will help you develop an aversion to that emotion. Identification of each of the positive emotion and its impact on you will help you to develop interest in inculcating those habits that increase those positive emotions.
