Ask Osho!

Why do people miss you after taking sannyas and why can't they see their own stupidity?

Synthesized from Source outcome

"A true sannyasin respects the journey of others, allowing them the freedom to wander, for every soul ripens in its own time."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, if people “miss” him after you take sannyas, let them; it is their freedom not to see, listen, or understand now. Don’t label them stupid—judgment inflates your ego and breeds fanaticism. A true sannyasin stops interfering in others’ lives, honors their right even to go astray, and trusts existence to ripen them in their own time.
Let others choose their path without calling them stupid; real spirituality respects their freedom and timing.
Why this matters practically
- Prevents ego and moral superiority from poisoning your growth.
- Respects others’ boundaries, reducing conflict and resentment.
- Cultivates patience and compassion, allowing relationships to breathe.
