Instructions for those entering the Path of Purna-Sannyasi (a world-renouncing sadhu) Think carefully many times before becoming a sannyasi. Sannyasa is an exit from the mundane world for the sake of seeking infinite freedom in the Absolute. Having become a sannyasi, respect your choice, be worthy of it, and remain so always and everywhere throughout your life, no matter what. Look at the world as a great illusion, a dream, and a manifestation of consciousness. Do not touch upon disputes, squabbles, politics, trade, or anything that binds the people of this world. Touch nothing at all except Dharma and the Path of Liberati

Give up personal Enlightenment for the sake of serving others. If you feel that Liberation has come to you, say to it: "Go to the one who needs you, and I will serve the Dharma and the sangha without hopes and fears." Be humbler than a blade of grass thrown on the road; do not think highly of yourself. The saints say: "Who is not a fool before the Lord?" Do not attach importance to your experiences; treat them like dirt. To overestimate your experiences is to underestimate God. God is always above any experiences. Think less: about yourself; about your Enlightenment; about the Enlightenment of others; about what you think

Bhagavan Shri Guru Avadhuta Dattatreya - ki-jaya! Dharma, artha, kama, and moksha are the four goals of life (purusharthas) that are attractive and desirable for a human being (purusha).
