TRUE RENUNCIATION

True renunciation is the renunciation of all passions, desires and egoism.
If you have a stainless mind, a mind free from attachment, egoism and passion, you are a sanyasin, no matter whether you live in a forest or in the bustle of a city, whether you wear white cloth or an orange colored robe, whether you shave your head or keep a long tuft of hair.
Many have not understood what true renunciation is.

Renunciation of physical objects is no renunciation at all.
