A sannyasi is a person who has renounced worldly life and material possessions to pursue spiritual goals. This practice is often associated with Hinduism, where individuals seek to attain enlightenment and liberation from the cycle of birth and death. Sannyasis typically live a life of simplicity, focusing on meditation, self-discipline, and devotion to God. In many cases, a sannyasi may wear ochre robes and carry a staff, symbolizing their commitment to a spiritual path. They often live in ashrams or secluded places, engaging in practices that promote inner peace and wisdom. The concept of sannyasa is closely linked to the teachings of various spiritual leaders, including Adi Shankaracharya and Ramakrishna.
