Can there be moments of effortlessness while a seeker is engaged in the first three stages?

In moments of total effort, brief gaps of effortlessness arise; simply remain aware and let the happening unfold, for you are the master of your own journey.

— Osho
According to Osho, yes: if your effort in the first three stages is total, brief gaps of effortlessness appear, when breathing, catharsis, laughter or madness move by themselves. In those moments you are not the doer; simply remain aware and do not be afraid. Because you initiated it, you remain the master and can stop instantly, so allow the happening to unfold.

Yes; when you give your all, the practice sometimes runs on its own—just watch it without fear, knowing you can stop anytime.
