What is the scientific method of sannyas?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Sannyas is not a technique, but a surrender to a living Master, allowing the false 'I' to dissolve and revealing the freedom beyond doership."
According to Osho, sannyas isn’t a technique among many but a methodless, supreme device to dissolve the ego when all self-efforts fail; because the ‘I’ cannot drop itself, one surrenders the ego to a living Master as a skillful means, a pretext, allowing the false ‘I’—a shadow—to be laid down, bringing freedom and fulfillment beyond doership.
You can’t remove the pushy ‘me’ by yourself, so in sannyas you trust a Master and let that pretend ‘me’ drop so you can finally be free.
