	THE FURTHER SHORE
		Sannyasis may well be fewer in the years to come, but there is every reason to expect that a steady flow of Hindudevotees will never cease to hear the call to the life of renunciation and entire dedication to God alone.
		All these have their value, and the sannyasi appreciates it perhaps to a greater extent than others, simply because he penetrates to the ultimate depth of things and of the mystery of which they are signs.
		The sannyasi is the outward expression of man's ultimate freedom in his innermost being; his existence and his witness are vitally necessary for human society, whether secular or religious.

	VNN Editorial - Sannyasa And Talking To Women
		To protect His sannyasi followers from the vices that follow from talking with women which may lead to their subsequent falldown, He was very happy as He rejected Chota Haridasa for a small offense.
		It is the primary duty of the guru to protect his personal brahmacari servant (a sannyasi is supposed to have a brahmacari servant) and that is one reason why he should reject the idea of having lady secretary or cooks.
		If the sannyasi guru can't make a system like this (which is quite easy to make even with a few disciples around), it does not justify in any way his talking to his aspiring lady disciples.

		The Sannyasi's act may look like a violent one, contradictory to the usual peaceful conduct of a spiritual person, but he has chosen that process to demonstrate practically how God cannot be seen through the gross eyes.
		Sannyasi: Your Honor, this young man came and asked me to show God to him, so I was trying to make him understand whether he should see God or experience Him; but he was so impatient and restless that he could not wait for a moment.

	Bhagavad-Gita: Chapter 6, Verse 1
		The sacred fire for a sannyasi is the Brahman or the spiritual substratum pervading all existence and the worship for a sannyasi is the performance of Vedic activities such as teaching the Vedas, chanting of mantras, developing devotion and helping the conditioned souls develop devotion to the Supreme Lord Krishna.
		So therefore one not devoted either to yagna or the sacred fire cannot be considered a sannyasi or a yogi being one who is perfecting the science of the individual consciousness attaining communion with the ultimate consciousness.
		Whether one is a sannyasi or celibate brahmin in the renounced order or a performer of jnana yoga or karma yoga such a person may be considered a renunciate following the path to atma tattva.
