Is Sanyasa Asrama A Pre Requisite For Knowledge.


Hare Krishna,Namaskarams.

As
Swami Paramarthananda said many a times on the subject of sanyasa ashrama, I am convinced that it is not a pre requisite to gain the supreme knowledge-moksha. There is no final word on this since interpretations of the Sruti can change is still a possibility. In another lifetime another Sankara or Krishna or Buddha can come and give another version of the same. I am convinced again that what you need is the god's grace for that final liberation/moksha since it is beyond a guru, ashrama and scriptures. Anthara sanyasa is the best other option available for many grahasthas.

Also none of us would have had the chance even to study the
vedas in the present times if that was strictly followed as some centuries back. Thanks to Swami, Chinmayananda who boldly ventured to do that which resulted in so many eminent teachers/gurus like Swami Dayananda Saraswathi, Swami Paramarthananda and others who made it available to one and all without discrimination of Ashrama, caste, creed, and gender.

may lord
Krishna bless us with that knowledge the way we should get that is liberation.
