Letting Go

Sai Baba comes out on the verandah and talks with several people about living life in future with the Spirit.  

Someone says, "But the spiritual life is hard work."  

Baba feigns surprise.  "What?  Hard work?"  He says, a mock frown on His face.  

He extends a clenched fist, palm upwards, gripping a handkerchief, saying, "Holding on is hard work."  

Then He flips it over and lets it drop.  "Letting go is easy."  He says and walks away.
