Stumbling Blocks



Stumbling Blocks

Considering how this
phrase lingers from
recent conversations..
What are the blocks which
scripture mentions..and
have entered modern 
discourse..?

Often it seems
a stumbling block
is posed as criticism
of a belief confessed:
 vital to one
not to another..
Or..attachment to a
teacher comes under
scrutiny..

These sometimes 
hurtful exchanges occur 
when thought and
perception are awarded
more than their due.. 
What is crucial now
is to ask the Question:
How may these blocks
be swept away..?

There is 
a most direct way
which recognizes the
simple truth of  our
incarnational identity..
Knowing our identity
we can experience 
all blocks burning
in one fiery
ever-present
 Self...
