When does the feeling of expectation drop utterly from within a sannyasin-disciple?

Expectation drops the moment you realize that life’s promises are mere mirages, and in that clarity, the Divine reveals itself in the here and now.

— Osho
According to Osho, expectation drops utterly the instant a sannyasin directly sees, through lived experience, that life’s promises are mirages—goals forever receding like the horizon. With this total seeing, hope collapses by itself; no suppression is needed. Then the “world” born of expectation dissolves, and the Divine already surrounding you is revealed here-now.

When you truly realize that chasing things will never finally satisfy you, expectations stop by themselves and you notice the sacredness already here.
