What is the importance of Sat-sang?

Satsang means meeting the ‘Sat’, the ‘Sat’ which is spoken of while extolling God as Sat-chit-ananda. Sat’ is the Existence Principle, the ‘Is’ that is the basic truth of the Universe. Align with the Truth, the ‘Sat’ in you, the Satya (Reality) on which the Mitya (false) is imposed by minds that do not see light. By dwelling in that Sat, the flame is lit, light dawns, darkness flees and Jnana Bhaskara (the Sun of Wisdom) rises. When there is hard rock below, you have to bore deeper for tapping the underground perennial pure water. The softer the subterranean soil, the quicker the success. Make your heart soft; then, success is quick in sadhanaTalk soft, talk sweet, talk only of God - that is the process of softening the subsoil. Develop compassion and empathy; engage in service, understand the agony of poverty, disease, distress and despair; and share both tears and cheers with others. That is the way to soften the heart, and help sadhana to succeed.
