It gives you the freedom to fulfill the responsibilities you believe in, rather than the reasonless responsibilities you get into through the commitments in relationships and marriage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Nithyananda Order Sannyasis Training<\/h3>\n<p>Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam ashrams and Nithyananda Sannyas Prashikshan Kendras (Sannyas Training Institutes) are living energy fields, established to teach people the science of living enlightenment and to constantly expand in life.<\/p>\n<p>The spiritual headquarters of Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam and Nithyananda Sannyas Prashikshan Kendra is located at the energy field of Bidadi ashram.<\/p>\n<p>Every sannyasi, sannyasini, brahmachari and brahmacharini needs to follow the spiritual practices, and commit his time and energy towards Nithyananda Mission work as well as radiate the lifestyle as shown and taught by Paramahamsa Nithyananda.<\/p>\n<p>Every sannyas candidate entering the Nithyananda Mission has to undergo a probation period of 3 months.<\/p>\n<p>Daily ashram routine is mandatory for every sannyasi, sannyasini, brahmachari and brahmacharini and consists of the following:<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">1) Developing a Yogic body<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>a.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The yogic body is one that has all the 4 qualities of strength, stamina, flexibility and physique.
