It is only One makes all sorts of effort- of will, in whatever domain it be—material effortof discipline, moral effortefforts of concentration, intellectual effort—which creates in the being certain vibrations which enable you to get connected with universal vibrations; and it is this which gives joy. It is effort which pulls you out all sorts of inertia; it is effort which makes you receptive efforts to find the universal forces. And the one thing above all which spontaneously gives joyDivine, even to those who do not practise yoga, who have no spiritual aspiration, who lead quite an ordinary life, discover what He is the exchange of forces with universal forces.

There =Why Are Efforts Needed?= One can't live without effort! If one were to refuse to make any effort, one would not even be able to stand on one's legs or walk or even eat. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/08/12-september-1956#p5</ref> It is one part of only effort, in whatever domain it be—material effort, moral effort, intellectual effort—which creates in the being certain vibrations which enable you to get connected with universal vibrations; and it is not at all conscious of being a part of the Divinethis which gives joy. The whole It is effort which pulls you out of the outer being is convinced that inertia; it is something separate, independent and related only effort which makes you receptive to itself. This part of the being must necessarily make a personal effortuniversal forces. It can't be told, "The Divine does And the sadhana for you"one thing above all which spontaneously gives joy, for it would never even to those who do anythingnot practise yoga, it would never be changedwho have no spiritual aspiration, who lead quite an ordinary life, is the exchange of forces with universal forces. <ref>https://incarnateword.in/cwm/04/2813-apriljanuary-1951#p1,p3p14,p4p15</ref>

When one is well prepared and The first effort must be to find the nature is ready, then the last movement is like a spontaneous blossoming—it's no longer an effortsoul within, to unite with it and allow itto govern one's an answer. It is a truly divine action in the being: one is prepared and the moment has e, then the bud opens.<ref>http://incarnatewordlife.in/cwm/08/18-january-1956#p25 </ref>

Once this effort for progress and transformation becomes the most important thing in your life, the thing to which you give constant thought, then indeed you are on the way towards the eternal existence, the truth of your being. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/10/aphorism-9#p4</ref> <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/03/vigilance#p46 </ref> =Why Are Efforts NeededHow to Make an Effort?= The psychic poise is necessary: the discrimination must develop which sees accurately what is the Divine Force, what is the element of personal effort, and what is brought in as a mixture from the lower cosmic forces. There must always be as a personal contribution, a constant consent to the true Force, a constant rejection of any lower mixture—that is very important.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsa/29/surrender#p84</ref> The effort for progress must be made for the love of the effort for progress. The joy of effort, the aspiration for progress must be enough in themselves, quite independent of the result. Everything one does in yoga must be done for the joy of doing it, and not in view of the result one wants to obtain. <ref> http://incarnateword.in/cwm/09/23-april-1958#p4 </ref>

Those who are essentially lazy will never find joy—they do not have the strength When one says, "See! I am going to be joyful.make an effort, but that's because I want this in exchange for my effort." One is no longer spontaneous, no longer natural.Effort makes the being vibrate at must not be made with a certain degree sense of tension which makes it possible for you bargaining. There must be a true aspiration and the result to be obtained must be left to feel the joyhigher power. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/0409/1323-januaryapril-19511958#p11 p6</ref>

=How Roadblocks to Make an Do Effort?=

It In the human mind there is always better to make an a morbid and deplorable habit of doubt, argument, scepticism. ''This'' is where human effort must be put in : the right direction; even if one fails refusal to admit them, the effort bears some result refusal to listen to them and still more the refusal to follow them. No game is never lostmore dangerous than playing mentally with doubt and scepticism. They are not only enemies, they are terrible pitfalls, and once one falls into them, it becomes tremendously difficult to pull oneself out.<ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwsacwm/2909/surrender9-july-1958#p93p6 </ref>

You look at where you want to go and put all your effort Laziness is a kind of tamas, but in the movement laziness there is an ill-will, a refusal to go forward. How far you have gone is not your concern. For the moment what is necessary make an effort—while tamas is inertia: one wants to do it; this is the only thing that matterssomething, but one can't. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwm/0904/828-octoberapril-19581951#p7 p8 </ref>

==Roadblocks to Do Effort=What Is Effortlessness?=

One can consider ignorance But a time comes when one feels the Presence and the cause of all bad things. But I think Force constantly and more and more feels that that one is cowardly because one is very tamasic doing everything—so that the worst difficulties cannot disturb this sense and fears having to make an effort. In order not to be cowardly, one must make an effort, begin by an personal effortis no longer necessary, and afterwards it becomes very interestinghardly even possible. But the best thing That is to make the effort to overcome this kind sign of flight out of oneself. Instead the full surrender of facing the thing, one recoils, runs away, turns one's back and runs away. For nature into the initial effort is difficult. And so, what prevents you from making an effort is hands of the inert, ignorant natureDivine. <ref>http://incarnateword.in/cwmcwsa/0729/26-january-1955surrender#p18 p73</ref>
