"There is no ease within samsara's realms;
Ease is found in the awakened state.
Through effort this awakened state is never gained;
It is not achieved with effort, but by letting be and never striving.

By rejection, samsara is not left behind;
It is freed within itself by letting be.
Your attempts to cure your miseries have brought no ease;
You are at ease by loosely letting be..."
...Quote from "Treasures from Juniper Ridge; The Profound Treasure Instructinos of Padmasambhava to the Dakini Yeshe Tsogyal;" Translated by Erik Pema Kunsang and Marcia Binder Schmidt
