Core Insight:
According to Osho, sannyas is simply your gesture of openness. If you refuse it, nothing punitive happens—but nothing transformative can be done either. He will not force or chase you; like sunlight before a closed door or a river before uncupped hands, he waits. Without your consent, you remain as you are—perhaps asleep or thirsty—because freedom, not violence, is the ground of real change.
