"Sannyasins are citizens of the world, and in the face of conflict, they dissolve identities and spread brotherhood, for only through consciousness can we end the divisions that breed war."
According to Osho, sannyasins have no nation to defend; they are citizens of the world. When ‘country’ is attacked, they do not pick sides or take up the sword—violence never worked and won’t now. Their response is to dissolve identities, spread brotherhood, meditate, and foster consciousness, helping end the very divisions that create wars.
They wouldn’t fight for a flag; they’d try to stop the fight by seeing everyone as one family and choosing peace.
