"The right moment to become a sannyasin is always now; when the outer world fails to satisfy, leap passionately into the search for your true self."
According to Osho, you're already late - the right moment is always now. Sannyas means a passionate leap into the search for truth: who you are, where you come from, where you're going. Stop postponing; the world's lures - money, power, prestige - only intoxicate and never fulfill. When you're utterly frustrated with outer promises, choose transcendence, not escape: live in the world yet not of it, with meditative awareness and inner distance.
If you feel even a little alive and curious for truth, don't wait - start now: live in the world but don't get hooked by money or status.
Why this matters practically
- Breaks the habit of postponing and commits you to inner growth now.
- Eases anxiety by loosening attachment to money, power, and approval.
- Helps you work and love in the world with clarity, meditation, and freedom.
