That is the pure essence of
sannyas: living as nobody, with no greed, with
no ambition. And then you can enjoy and you can
celebrate. And by celebrating and enjoying, you
will spread the ripples of ecstasy to other
people.
-
Every sannyasin, wherever
he is, has a heart-to-heart connection with me.
That's the whole meaning of sannyas. Sannyas is
not an intellectual conviction; it is a kind of
love affair. So where you are does not matter.
-
Real sannyas is always
insecurity because real life is insecurity.
There is a great security in being insecure. In
dropping the very idea of security you are
secure with the whole, with God, with the total.
And there is great excitement then, because each
moment you don't know what is going to happen.
-
My sannyas is not a
character that will confine you. My sannyas is
an awareness that will give you more and more
freedom. And if one day you feel that my sannyas
is making a prison for you, then drop out of it
-- that will be the true sannyas spirit. But
never allow it to become an imprisonment.
-
Sannyas is not a
logical conviction, it is a conversion in love.'
-
The whole process of
sannyas is getting rid of the mind. Mind
consists of questions and answers. The moment
you get rid of the mind, then only consciousness
is left in its purity, with not even a ripple.
The lake is so silent, so unperturbed, so still,
it starts reflecting the stars, the clouds, the
moon, the trees, the flowers, the birds on the
wing.
-
Mind is the misery. 'In' or
'out' won't help; one hundred years, one
thousand years won't help; one life, many lives
won't help -- unless you become aware that this
very mind that you are carrying, the mind of a
businessman, is the barrier. You drop this mind,
and sannyas happens.
-
The day you become
courageous enough to enter into your being, you
have become a sannyasin. Sannyas means: now you
are taking your life into your own hands. Now
you are trying to live the life that is yours,
authentically. Now you are no longer playing
roles. Now you will not allow anybody else to
write the story of your life. Now you are ready
to unfold that which you have always carried
like a seed within you.
-
Sannyas is taken out of
sheer joy. Yes, it is a feeling; it is not
logic. It is a love affair! You don't fall in
love for certain reasons. If you fall in love
for certain reasons soon you will fall out,
because no reason can remain there forever.
