According to Osho, taking sannyas while feeling frustrated simply reveals the horse you’ve been riding—the world’s built‑in despair. Sannyas doesn’t grant instant cheer; it invites surrender of ego and companionship with the Divine. When you truly bow and take God’s company, melancholy dissolves into meaning, beauty, and victorious joy; without that surrender, defeat continues.
Sannyas won’t instantly make you happy; it’s the start of dropping ego and turning to God so sadness can become real joy.
