The soul, or spirit is not to be taken by any body, it's a gift not to be taken for granted. Hindulife (talk) 21:37, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
If I am not mistaken, the term Sannyassin was around a long time before Rajneesh brought it to the west. The Sannyassin should then redirect here. Sfacets 01:37, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
Orthodox Hindus do not generally accept the claims of the followers of Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh / Osho to be sannyasins, and often even find this claim insulting. Though Rajneesh took pains to distinguish his sannyasins from the traditionals, and called them neo-sannyasins, in practice that prefix is rarely used. The result is more like the co-optation of the name than a claim.
Rajneesh is not a hindu in the first place - he follows a mix of hindu, zen buddhist and jain views and traditions coupled with his own. Therefore it is not just "orthodox hindus" but technically they do not fall into the category of hindu sanyasa
Saint is a term used to refer to someone who is a holy person. The term comes from the New Testament, where it is used to refer to all Christian believers. Over the years the term has grown to be used and accepted in other Christian, religious, and even secular contexts, to refer to those who are considered to be exceptionally virtuous or glorified in heaven. Hence a "saint" (cont. with sinner) is a (usually deceased) person whose life is regarded by a community as a good example, and their life story is remembered for sake of inspiring others.
The Sacred Paths of the East: Third Edition by Theodore M. Ludwig calls this term Samnyasin, and I have seen it spelled this way in other sources; maybe this should be added to the redirection page? Being new to Wikipedia, I'm not sure how to use it, or I would do it myself. Konamaiki 06:44, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Can the Gaudia Vaishnava renunciates be properly called sannyasins? I thought Sannyasa was a ritual renouncing along Shankara's lines, an advaitic process. If there is a vaishnava sannyasa, perhaps that needs to be differentiated from dashanami sampradaya. Devadaru (talk) 06:01, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
I can't add anything about this topic, as I know nothing about it, but want to point out discrepancies between this entry, which says that Sannyasa is "traditionally taken by men or women over fifty," and the entry for "Ashrama," which gives the ages of "72-demise" and, farther down the page, "80+ years." Can anyone clarify and amend both pages? Schoemann (talk) 12:53, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

This section reads like a religious pamphlet, can it be reworked into a less editorializing form? 24.209.109.80 (talk) 13:47, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
