3 Real renunciation Real renunciation means that one should always think himself part and parcel of the Supreme Lord and therefore think that he has no right to enjoy the results of his work. The person acting in Kåñëa consciousness is really a sannyäsé, one in the renounced order of life. A sannyäsé is supposed to be free from the reactions of his past activities, but a person who is in Kåñëa consciousness automatically attains this perfection without even accepting the so-called order of renunciation. One who is satisfied in himself has no fear of any kind of reaction from his activity. 7/22/2019 Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.
