his renunciation has outspread into the world of today, reached, into
all points of the compass and, penetrating all lands and homes, has
brought new life, hope, solace, light, strength, joy and inspiration to
literally countless millions of souls throughout the modern world."<br>
..."His Sannyasa has transformed itself into a spiritual force that
holds within itself the hope and promise of the future world-welfare
and world-order, based upon a divine life of love, compassion, virtue
and goodness. This solitary act of his Sannyasa has become a swelling
flood of self-giving that marks the stream of this saint’s dedicated
life through the better part of the past half century. By this, he
proclaims the grand idea that renunciation is not to be a single act at
some momentous occasion but that it should characterize your entire
life and mark every thought, word and act throughout your life.".....

"...in <i>tyaga </i>(renunciation), in <i>vairagya </i>(dispassion)
there should be <i>tyaga </i>of the false notion of the reality of
the ego-sense. There should also be <i>anasakti </i>(non-attachment)
towards the ego-sense itself. All other <i>anasaktis </i>become
fruitful if this <i>anasakti </i>is there—non-attachment to one’s own
ego. All other <i>tyaga </i>will yield fruit and become effective in
supporting true <i>jnana </i>and true <i>bhakti </i>if there is
this <i>anasakti </i>towards this false ego,
which is the most persistent, the closest and therefore the least
recognised. If an object is at a distance you can see it, but if
something is in your eye you require the help of someone else to see it
and remove it for you. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Even so, the ego being the closest and the
most difficult to perceive and remove, they conceived of this super
method of giving this task to the <i>
sad-guru</i>,<i> </i>putting it in his hands, letting him do it: “I
shall reduce myself to a zero and humble myself at his feet. What I
cannot do, he can.” And the second way is to reduce yourself to a zero
and humble yourself at the Feet of God and the Divine Mother and say:
“I cannot do it; You please do it for me O Lord, O Divine Mother.” This
is the one and the only way.".... Swami Chidananda <a

are proper dieting, weight control, regular exercise, practice of

one should start flexibility exercise, Trikonasana and Suryanamaskara.
Gradually
and in proper order one should practice main yogasanas namely
Sarvangasana,
Matsyasana, Halasana,
Paschimottanasna. Shitali and Shitkari Pranayamas have good effects

"Sanyasa is not a thing to be received from or given to anybody. It is
a
dedication of our entire being to the Lord and His Service. It is a
spontaneous wave of aspiration rising from within your own heart."<br>
-Papa Ramdas<br>
<p class="MsoNormal">"The essential thing is renunciation.
Without renunciation
none can pour out his whole heart in working for others. The man of
renunciation sees all with an equal eye and devotes himself to the
service of
all."<br>
-Vivekananda<br>
</p>
You must literally live renunciation. This is the way of all
attainment. This is the key to true and lasting happiness and peace.
This is the secret of world-welfare and universal happiness. In
renunciation lies the end of all strife and hatred. In renunciation
lies the source of true peace and progress. Renunciation is the path
that leads to friendliness, co-operation and unity. Renounce
selfishness, greed, hatred and egoism. Embrace love, humility,
contentment and charity.<br>
- Swami Chidananda
