Obstacles?

Are there any special conditions required to
apprehend the truth of our own being?

Contrary to what we are assuming or
are lead to believe,
at any time 
at any stage and 
at any place 
seeing through the mirage is possible.

Difficult situations
challenging circumstances
hardship and pain are NOT an
obstacle.

It is in trying situations that we are confronted 
with borders, resistance and limitations.
   
And at each moment we can investigate if
identification with a personal me is involved 
or not.

A challenging situation
will create resistance, tension
and therefore more hardship,
if there is personal identification.

But never at any time is there a hindrance to know
the truth of our own being.

Presence awareness shines.

Ask the question at any time:
Is there at this moment the awareness of being aware?

And if the answer is:  'Yes'
can we settle for that?
Stay with the simplicity of
knowing who we are?

Or do we see immediately a story starting up?
Resisting the plain and obvious
for a story about me,  
about past  
about wrongs done to me?

Maybe time to investigate this?
