*An effect must have a cause. If the cause is a phantom, so also is the effect. Thus, both cause and effect are ultimately not real. If the ego, the so-called doer, is seen to be a fiction, then how can its effects be considered real?

From Longchenpa:

"The freedom of everything--abiding in a supreme state of equalness--
is unacceptable to those involved in cause and effect, effort and achievement,
*but in the most sublime approach it makes perfect sense as the ultimate
meaning of unwavering equalness."
