It happens to almost everyone, somewhere in the journey of life, but it is very difficult to cover the miles assigned to us without any company. You are surrounded with your relatives, your friends, and your close acquaintances but you feel that something is missing.
This something is very important and it can only be experienced in true company. In Hindu Vedic culture, there is a very beautiful word “Satsang”. It is derived from Sanskrit language. Sat means true and Sanga means company. Indian philosophy deals extensively with the virtues and values of Satsang.
To me Satsang has a wider meaning because I feel that without the presence of the master, Satsang is incomplete. I have already defined the word Satsang in the first paragraph but it can’t be described because it is an experience. In English there has never been such a thing as Satsang so it can’t be translated into English. It is something which can be experienced.
