It means the end of worry . . . and let this moment be the end of all your worries. You have worried enough, more than was needed. Now drop them; now let them disappear.
And remember one thing about worrying -- that it has no beginning and no end. If you want to continue, you can continue them forever; they are eternal. One worry creates ten more. Even the very solution that you bring in to end one worry will bring ten worries, so it goes on and on.
The very effort to solve a worry is to continue it. The moment one understands this viciousness of worry, one simply jumps out of it. It has not to be solved, it cannot be solved, but one can get out of it; one can grow out of it.
Let this be your fee for sannyas: drop the worries! Give them to me -- simply be free from this moment. Even if because of past habit they come sometimes, just say goodbye. Say 'I'm finished; I am no more interested.' Don't get distracted by them, don't even fight with them. If they come let them be there, remain indifferent, and within a few weeks you will find that they are coming less and less and less, and one day suddenly they are not there.
The day when one finds oneself without worries is a great day. One is really born that day and one has, for the first time, a glimpse of what life is. It is the smoke of worries that doesn't allow you to see the flame of life.
