Ask Osho!

Can I take sannyas if I can only wear one garment instead of the full ochre robes?

Synthesized from Source practice

"Don't let the trivialities of life deter you; true sannyas is a matter of the heart, not the garment. Embrace your courage and step through the door of transformation."

According to Osho, obstacles to wearing ochre robes for sannyas are as tiny as a fly—brief laughter, family annoyance, or a stalled promotion. Don’t dilute your step; gather courage and accept small inconveniences. If you let such fears stop you, you miss the door. Trust your feeling and take sannyas wholeheartedly.
Don’t do it halfway to avoid small hassles—be brave and say a full yes, even if people laugh.
