Sannyas Quotes

“No knife cuts as swiftly, deeply and precisely as the blade of the Beloved.”
― Tiziana Stupia, Meeting Shiva: Falling and Rising in Love in the Indian Himalayas

“The meaning of Sannyas is not well defined. Its meaning is not static; it is redefined after short periods of time in the life of a Sannyasi.”
― Harshit Walia

“Sannyas is not a philosophy; it is a quest for TRUTH. It is not a way of life. It is a commitment towards a self discovered state of mind.”
― Harshit Walia

“Sanatan means eternal, timeless, deathless.

These are our real qualities. We are never born and we never die. The body is
only a shelter, we are not it. It is only like a garment which one has to change
when it is too old. And we have changed the garment so many times. We differ
from other people only if the form and the shape and the color and the size of the
garment. The innermost reality is the same.

To find it, to find that which is never born and never dies, is the real goal of all
religious enquiry. One can call it god, liberation, nirvana, enlightenment. They
are different names for the same phenomenon. And it is not to be searched for
somewhere else, it is within you. It is you, so you have to dive deep into your
own nature.

Sannyas is a pilgrimage from the periphery to the center, from your own surface
to your depth.”
― Osho
