Ask Osho!

How do I prepare for taking sannyas?

Synthesized from Source practice

"Let the inner priest die; drop borrowed beliefs and return to the living spark within—innocence, laughter, and a heart ready to embrace truth."

According to Osho, to prepare for sannyas, let the inner priest die—drop borrowed creeds, sectarian pride, and market-minded religiosity. Return to the living spark within: innocence, laughter, availability. Come unclothed by ideology—sky‑clad in consciousness—so the master’s call can awaken you. Preparation is not study but deconditioning, courage, and a celebrative heart ready to be drawn back to truth.
Let go of secondhand beliefs, be open and joyful like a child, and meet the master with nothing to defend.
Why this matters practically
- Frees you from rigid conditioning that blocks transformation.
- Cultivates joy and receptivity so guidance can work on you.
- Replaces hypocrisy with simple authenticity in daily choices.
