What will one accomplish by denying just these things? The one thing needful is the renunciation of 'lady and gold'. That renunciation is the genuine and preeminent renunciation. Householders ought to go into isolation once in a while, to rehearse otherworldly control keeping in mind the end goal to develop dedication to God; they ought to repudiate rationally. However, the Sannyasi ought to deny both rationally and physically… It is Satchidananda that comes to us as the master. On the off chance that a man is started by a human master, he won't accomplish anything in the event that he sees his master as an insignificant man. The master ought to be viewed as the immediate appearance of God. At exactly that point can the devotee have confidence in the mantra given by the Guru. Once a man has confidence he accomplishes all.
