This is how the Master once explained the
fact that Enlightenment came not through
effort but through understanding:

“Imagine all of you are hypnotized to
believe there is a tiger in this room.
In your fear you will try to escape it,
to fight it, to protect yourselves from
it, to placate it. But once the spell
is broken there is nothing to be done.
And you are all radically changed:

So understanding breaks the spell,
the broken spell brings change,
change leads to inaction,
inaction is power:
You can do anything on earth,
for it is no longer you who do it.”
Anthony De Mello, SJ
