Neo-Sannyas Movement

The Neo-Sannyas Movement is a modern revival of the traditional Indian spiritual practice of sannyas, which involves renouncing worldly attachments to seek spiritual enlightenment. Emerging in the 20th century, it incorporates elements of yoga, meditation, and philosophical teachings from Indian sages, often blending them with contemporary ideas. The movement emphasizes personal spiritual growth, inner peace, and self-realization, attracting followers worldwide. While rooted in ancient traditions, Neo-Sannyas is flexible and adaptable, reflecting current cultural and social contexts, and often aims to promote universal values like compassion and harmony.
