Ask Osho!

What should I do when facing obstacles to sannyas from family and society?

Synthesized from Source practice

"Stand courageous in your individuality, question the pretenses of society, and bow only to the source of life, not to man-made demands."

According to Osho, resistance from family and society is natural—and precisely the challenge of sannyas. Do not abandon society, but refuse blind obedience. Stand courageous, rooted in your inner intelligence and the voice of your soul. Proclaim your individuality, question pretenses, and bow only to the source of life—not to man‑made demands. Live among people, yet remain free, authentic, and uncompromisingly conscious.
Stay where you are, be kind, but don’t just obey—listen to your heart, be brave, and stop pretending.
