How does a person feel when he severs, all of a sudden, all relationships with this mundane world for embracing Sannyas?

Posted by Teachings of Swami Sivananda on December 27, 2009 at 6:00pm

When there is a true spirit of Tyaga in any, there can never be any idea of the oldimpressions of the world or of past relations with mundane existence. Even if the personembraces Sannyas without the indispensable Vairagya, he need not necessarily feel for the lossthat he sustains, though the latent Vasanas, Vrittis and Samskaras still lie embedded in his mentalconsciousness. A true Sannyasi enjoys the utmost bliss when he cuts asunder all connectionswith the world.From "May I answer that" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963).
