In the purification aspect of it there are obstacles to resolve. However, if one is adverse to the obstacles, they can't overcome them, as that aversion will be resistance, avoidance and so on, and therefore, this involves no wish or desire that impels any volitional activity to 'get rid of it'. Conversely, it is the cessation of such reactivity that enables the purification to proceed.

Do you accept that what you think needs purifying is already Oneness manifest? (and therefore already perfect and complete in every way:) Or do you think there is something other than Oneness manifesting as that which needs purifying? If so what is that reality that is not Oneness? If there is any misunderstanding between us, that should clear it up.
