Will I succeed in attaining nirvana after taking sannyas?

Sannyas is not a guarantee of nirvana; it is a fearless leap into the unknown, where trust becomes your only security.

— Osho
According to Osho, sannyas is a fearless leap into insecurity and trust, not a business deal with guaranteed nirvana. One surrenders bookkeeping and rests in God as the only security: as He keeps, so you will be. Demand for assurance is the householder’s mind; the sannyasin stakes everything without bargaining. From such total trust and commitment, transformation may flower—but no promises.

No one can promise nirvana; taking sannyas means bravely trusting life and letting go of guarantees.
