There is no good reason for people to struggle. Struggling does not produce great results. Working hard with a song in your heart, does help manifest our desires. But struggling, which implies suffering, no. There is too much resistance to the present moment in suffering and struggling for any good to come of it.
Flowers do not struggle to be flowers and birds don’t struggle to be birds. The only entity that struggles on this planet (except for a trapped animal) is the human being. Somehow, it has even been determined that struggling and suffering is holy and will buy us a place in heaven. If we are putting off our happiness and fulfillment, thinking that struggling will bring us closer to heaven, we are following a mistaken pathway.
Not one great, holy teacher ever said that struggling was a good thing. The laws of the Universe are of unlimited potential and effortless ease. It is the blight of the human, ego-based mind that thinks it needs to struggle to get results. But any action that begins in a lowered state of consciousness will not manifest good things. So people should not struggle at all.
