- A person sometimes accepts the dress of a sannyasi or babaji in the renounced order, but he cannot give up desires for sense gratification, especially for the association of women. Such a person cannot make advancement in spiritual life
- A sannyasi should avoid carrying anything but a danda and kamandalu
- According to the Vedic system, a sannyasi, a person in the renounced order of life, is dressed in saffron-colored garments
- Actually that mentality is sannyasa. It doesn't matter whether we have changed the dress or not, but if we decide it, that "I am eternal servant of Krsna; my only duty is to serve Krsna," that is sannyasa
- Any kind of cotton cloth, you take, two paisa worth from, or two cent worth, and color, and you get it orange-colored and put on. Because in this age nobody is inquiring whether he is actually a sannyasi or not
- Anyone acting under the direction of the Supreme Lord is actually a sannyasi and a yogi, and not the man who has simply taken the dress of the sannyasi, or a pseudo-yogi. BG 1972 purports
- As long as Siddha Svarupa Maharaja and Tusta Krishna Maharaja act as sannyasis, ie. dress in dhoti, keep shave headed with sikha, follow strictly the rules and regulations and preach from my books, I have no objection
- Asuras in the dress of sannyasis even explain the Bhagavad-gita and Srimad-Bhagavatam in different ways according to their own imaginations. Thus they continue to remain asuras birth after birth
- At that stage (of avadhuta, the paramahamsa), a person sometimes accepts the symbols and dress of a sannyasi and sometimes does not. Sometimes he dresses like a householder
- At the mature old age, say 65-70 years, everyone must accept the renounced order of Sannyas; if not in dress, then in action positively
D
- Dhoti, I don't say. You have nice coat-pant. I don't say that you have to... I never said that. You have adopted it. (laughs) I never said that "You put on dhoti." But those who are sannyasis, brahmacaris, their dress is different
- Dress is not important. Practically, as sannyasi, brahmacari, we dress with saffron cloth. But sometimes you do not like, but we have to do business with you - therefore we change. What can be done? Necessity has no law
I
- I have got my this body, a dress, covering. And when I go India, this is not required. So they are taking that the body has evolved like that. But no. Here, under certain condition, I accept this dress
- I have no objection to your recommending these devotees, but whether you are acting as a sannyasi and observing all the rules and regulations and keeping yourself in sannyasi dress?
- If by the dress of sannyasi, you take some money and eat and sleep, then it is transcendental fraud
- In Bhagavad-gita (BG 6.1) it is also stated, anasritah karma-phalam karyam karma karoti yah, sa sannyasi ca yogi ca: one who works devotedly for the satisfaction of Krsna is a sannyasi. The dress is not sannyasa, but the attitude of service to Krsna is
J
- Just like this dress of sannyasi, saffron cloth, one will respect that, "Here is a sannyasi." But if he is a thief in a dress of a sannyasi, that is dangerous. That is dangerous
- Just like we have dress. So this dress of sannyasi is not all. I must be real sannyasi in knowledge, in education, in behavior, not that... Hitler studies by the dress. That is the foolishness
- Just to get praise from others, to get cheap adoration from his followers or people in general, such a (restless) person sometimes accepts the dress of a sannyasi or babaji in the renounced order
N
- Not that artificially I have taken the dress of a sannyasi and talking nonsense. He is not sannyasi. Sannyasi means one who has completely devoted his life for Krsna
- Now there are so many rascals in this dress of sannyasi, they are eating meat. That is going on. They say: "What is the wrong of eating meat? We can eat." They eat meat
O
- One cannot become detached from the attraction of the material world simply by dressing himself in saffron cloth. He must become attached to the devotional service of the Lord. BG 1972 purports
- One should become sannyasa by action, not by dress. In Bhagavad-gita it is said that any person who doesn't work for himself but for Krishna only is a perfect sannyasa and perfect yogi, never mind what order he lives in
- Others are toiling, and we are getting money by some dress. That's all. They are getting money by laboring hard, and we are getting money... In India, mostly the sannyasis, they do that. The priests also, they do that
- Our (Krsna consciousness movement) only concern is to attract people to Krsna consciousness. We may do this in the dress of sannyasis or in the regular dress of gentlemen. Our only concern is to spread interest in Krsna consciousness
S
- Sankaracarya, the great monist philosopher and religious reformer, said that simply for the matter of the stomach, one may not adopt the dress of a renunciant. Therefore, there is no way out - no way to avoid doing work, if only for the belly's sake
- Since time immemorial, the sannyasa order has carried the tridanda
- So far taking sannyasa is concerned, you are already more than Sannyasi because your life is dedicated to Krsna. Sannyas does not mean change of dress
- Sometimes they (materialistic persons) adopt the dress of a sannyasi or preacher. They train some of their family members as lawyers and continually seek help from a high-court to acquire riches on the plea of maintaining temples
- Srila Bhaktivinoda remarks that after one adopts the renounced order & accepts the dress of either a sannyasi or a babaji, if he entertains the idea of sense gratification the only atonement is to commit suicide at the confluence of the Ganges and Yamuna
T
- The conclusion is that the sannyasa order depends not on the dress but the determination to serve Mukunda
- The great hero, the son of Prthu, chased him (Indra) again. But when he saw that Indra was carrying in his hand a staff with a skull at the top and was again wearing the dress of a sannyasi, he still chose not to kill him
- The saffron dress worn by a sannyasi announces to the world that he has renounced all worldly affairs and is simply engaged in the service of the Lord. Such a devotee is actually a sannyasi, or liberated person
- The sannyasa order is still respected in India. Indeed, the very dress of a sannyasi still commands respect from the Indian public
- The sannyasi dress is actually an attraction for material formality. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu did not like such formality, but He wanted the essence of it - service to Mukunda. Such determination in any condition is paratma-nistha. That is required
- The vanaprastha, when the gentleman is completely educated for renouncing this world, then he sends back the wife to grown-up boys and he takes sannyasa. This is sannyasa dress
- There was one Ravana. In the dress of a sannyasi he kidnapped Lord Ramacandra's wife. And nowadays you will find many Ravanas like that. You see? The so-called sannyasis, their business is to . . . this tendency is always there
- They (the Bhattatharis) camp wherever they like and have no fixed place of residence. Outwardly they take up the dress of sannyasis, but their real business is stealing and cheating
- This danda, there are four sticks. One stick is representing the jiva soul, another stick is representing body, another stick is mind, and another stick, speech
- This is now formal accepting of sannyasa, but real sannyasa purpose will be fulfilled when you'll be able to induce the people of the world dancing like you. That is real sannyasa. This formal dress is not sannyasa
- This saffron dress has been misused by many imposters who present themselves as liberated persons or incarnations of God
- This saffron dress is practically a passport for the mendicant and sannyasi to go anywhere
- Those who are completely dedicated to the lotus feet of Krsna in service are actually sannyasis. As a matter of formality, the devotee accepts the sannyasa dress as previous acaryas did. He also accepts the three dandas
W

- When Ramananda Raya fell to the ground unconscious, Caitanya Mahaprabhu touched his hand, and he immediately regained consciousness. But when he saw Lord Caitanya in the dress of a sannyasi, he was struck with wonder
- While I am talking with you, because your dress is white, and because my dress is saffron colored, it does not mean that we are different. Simply on the ground of dress, if we think we are different, then that is ajnana. Nobody does so
Y
- Yesterday I received your gift of one shawl. This shawl is very nice, and it will be used when I go to some meeting in my dress garments
- You have requested me if you can again return to your wife. How is that? It will be a very bad example. It is not possible at all. Then you have to give up your sannyasi dress. So give up these thoughts
- Your description of how you are distributing Bhagavad-gita is very nice. Follow that principle. There is no need of sannyasa dress
