The real Sannyasin is a teacher of householders. It is with the light and teaching obtained from them that householders of old triumphed many a time in the battles of life.
The householders give food and clothing to the Sadhus, only in return for the invaluable teachings. Had there been no such mutual exchange in India, her people would have become extinct like the American Indians by this time.
