How I Became A Swami

In this wonderful audio (from archival reel-to-reel from 1968), Swami Satchidananda is asked why he became a swami and what sannyas (monkhood) is all about. He explains how he became a swami and what it really means to be a renunciate—which doesn't involved running away from one's family or the world (which was often what his young students thought in those early days...).
