It is not essential that one should renounce worldly life (become a sanyaasi) to
gain the knowledge. If one can go through the practices (called saadhanas)
prescribed for attaining mental purity, calmness and concentration of mind, which
are prerequisites for gaining effective knowledge and devoting sufficient time
regularly and systematically under the guidance of a competent teacher to the
study of sastra, one can become a jnani even while one continues to be engaged in
the duties of one‘s secular life.
