It is impossible to Suffer and Know Yourself

It is impossible to suffer once you are clear about your true nature. When we are unclear, that can sound a bit mystical or distant. All it really means is that we can't uphold a story of suffering within us. We will not add fuel to the fire. If the usual things that used to cause us to suffer arise, instead of being drawn into the story, instead we may be curious, or we may inquire into the story. On top of this we will also see that it is not that we are suffering but just that there is something arising within us. When we are aware of our true nature all that arises within us passes through the open space that we are and leaves us very quickly. I like what Mooji says, "It is not that you are experiencing suffering but that you are suffering your experience."
There is a world of difference. We don't need to be under the illusion that life will become all sunshine and lemonade when we are aware of who we are beyond stories, life will still appear in all it's many flavours that it does. It is just that we are better equipped, more courageous, and the qualities of love, patience and kindness have ground to flourish within us. Our true nature is not the nature of our character or personality. Our true nature is shared with all of life and is beyond stories, beyond personality and beyond ideas. It is possible to Know this, but it is not like your average or usual way of knowing things. It is not one thing that knows another thing. This Knowing of Yourself and Yourself are one and the same and it is entirely possible to Know it and Be it right Now.
