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 wear simple clothing, often orange or saffron, symbolizing their detachment from worldly concerns. In the context of Hindu philosophy, sannyasis follow the path of Jnana Yoga or the pursuit of knowledge, focusing on meditation and self-realization. They may live in solitude or in communities, sharing their wisdom and experiences with others who seek spiritual growth.
