What is Sanyas

Sanyas does not mean to renounce!

The Scriptures, the Priests and Gurus only teach you what is being religious or what is being Godly but no one gives you a process, a way,  no one shows how to reach towards state of Godliness or Religiousness,  it is only through meditation that you attain to this state, and the process to reach to the state is very simple, you just have to be alert, you just have to witness yourself, only by witnessing and watching yourself you will reach to a state of Godliness, without any Commandments, without any rules, without suppressing yourself, without any mantras , without following anybody and importantly without God– meditation simply teaches you to follow your heart.
When you come into this Godliness, religiousness - it is coming into Sanyas – this is Sanyas – and then you become a Sanyasi.

Sanyas is a state of heart, it is state of your being, you cannot take up Sanyas, no one can and it is also true that no one give you Sanyas , you can only be initiated into Sanyas, you can only be shown the way towards Sanyas.
Sanyas is not a cup of coffee, it cannot be served to you , you have to become a Sanyasi, you have to live in consciousness only then Sanyas is possible.

Sanyas does not mean you narrow down your life to some kind of small living, which is commonly called by religions simple living, the way the traditional religions look at Sanyas is to live a boring life, a life like a vegetable with lots of rules, but if you really look at life it has no laws it is overflowing, it is vast, in a way Sanyas is a process to live life like Adam and Eve – pure – untouched.

Sanyas means facing the truth, all the truth whichever life throws at you, whatever and however it is offered to you by the existence, because life is simply unpredictable, every moment is new, you may like it or not but it does give some newness - it is fresh, unknown.
Sanyas does not mean you hide from the world in an ashram or with some Guru, In fact a real Guru should make you strong enough to stay in this world and face it, the world around you may be good or bad, the circumstances you are surrounded with may be favorable to you or not but this is the way which is for you, no one can change those circumstances, no one can alter it for you. Here we teach to meditate, to pray, here we teach you not to run away from life but to face life, here we teach you to  face life with open arms, with grace with the help of prayers and blessings.

A Guru prepares you to face these circumstances, to face the truth of life, this is my Sanyas, I prepare you to face the truth, to face the vastness of life as it comes then let whatever come, a real Guru by his ways shows you a path to travel on, by which you can bear the hardships of life, by which you can celebrate life - Sanyas means to accept life and live it without any complaints, with a smile, with a prayer in your heart.
