The
word Sat-sang has a deep meaning associated with it. “Sat” is the Supreme
Truth, the ultimate Reality, the eternal Consciousness, the God. “Sang” means the
company. Satsang is the divine company of Truth- the omnipresent, eternal, conscious,
supremely peaceful, pure, complete, blissful and divine Truth.
The
routine meaning of the word Satsang is associated with the company of Saints who
have realized the Supreme Truth, who have realized the true Self. To be around
the holy Saints, to listen to their talks, to read their holy scriptures under
their guidance, to perform self-analysis of such spiritual wisdom – all of this
is commonly known as Satsang.
Life is
a mystery and only Satsang can help us to solve this divine mystery. Satsang is
the only remedy in this world for the sorrow and restlessness of mind. Only
satsang can bring deep long lasting blissfulness amidst this chaotic ever
changing material world. Only Satsang can help one to absorb true virtues of

within.
