"It's so stupid not to go through life with everything you want; with nothing but extreme joy, peace, loveliness every moment; when that is your inherent natural state. It takes no effort to be what you are. It does take extreme effort to be what you are not: a body with trouble, sicknesses, and needing this and needing that. It takes effort to be what you're not. But to be what you are takes as much effort as you men would need to be male and as you women would need to be female. It takes no effort to be what you are. And yet, you persist in using effort to be what you are not. It's really stupid!
You're using effort in trying to make yourself effortless, that's impossible. It's a contradiction. You've got to stop using effort. You've got to let go and let be. That's what's meant by 'Let go let God.' You are it, you're the god. Let go and let your Self be. However, it seems to take much effort because you are using tremendous effort to hold onto and maintain your non-self, your ego, and there is where your effort is. It takes no effort to be what you are, the Self."
