Disciple: Do you mean, sir, that merely taking up Sannyāsa will lead one to the goal?

Markata Sannyāsa is

Swami Shivānanda gave this kind of Sannyāsa to your uncle. T

Disciple: What then, sir, will be the fate of the householders? Swamiji: Why, through the merit of good Karma, they shall have this renunciation in some future birth of theirs. And directly this renunciation comes, there is an end of all troubles—with no further delay he gets across this mystery of life and death

Nāg Mahāshaya, for instance

Disciple: Sir, even the Upanishads etc. do not clearly teach about renunciation and Sannyāsa.

स्वामीजी – यवद हजार िषम में भी श्रीगुरुदेि के समान कोई सोंन्मासी महापुरुष ज􀉉 ले लेते हैं, तो सब कमी पूरी हो जाती है। िे जो उ􀇄 आदशम भािोों को छोड़ जाते हैं, उनके ज􀉉 से सहस्र िषम तक लोग उनको ही ग्रहण करते रहेंगे। इस सोंन्मास पिवत के इस देश में होने के कारण ही यहाँ उनके समान महापुरुष ज􀉉 ग्रहण करते हैं। दोष सभी आश्रमोों में हैं पर वकसी में कम और वकसी में अवधक। दोष रहने पर भी यह आश्रम अन्म आश्रमोों के शीषमस्थान के अवधकार को प्राप्त हुआ है, इसका कारण क्ा है? स􀇄े सोंन्मासी तो अपनी मुद्धि की भी उपेक्षा करते हैं – जगत् के मोंगल के वलए ही उनका ज􀉉 होता है। यवद ऐसे सोंन्मासाश्रम के भी तुम कृतज्ञ न हो, तो तुम्हें वधक्कार, कोवट कोवट वधक्कार है। इन बातोों को कहते ही स्वामीजी का मुखमण्डल प्रदीप्त हो उठा। सोंन्मास-आश्रम के गौरि-प्रसोंग से स्वामीजी मानो मूवतममान सोंन्मास रप में वशष्य के स􀊃ुख प्रवतभावसत होने लेग। इस
