SATSANG


SATSANG
"Sat" means True (Good)
"Sang" means Company
Therefore, Satsang means the True Company. But whose company? 

Company here referred as a single individual like a Guru (Saint) or a group of people who can present truth. Or in other words we can say discussing the truth of life is known as Satsang.

Our country comprises of various religions and corresponding gurus (saints) which speaks up about the various positive things of life. However we are unable to understand their views as it seems to be boring and most of the facts are well known to us.

This is due to the fact that majority of the guru speaks up the bookish language which is described in our holy books. We all are aware that these books are the foundations of our society but still bookish language make us unable to understand the message.
Now, it is neccesary for a guru or saint to make a platform of a lower level, means to develop a message in line with the level, like of a common man, so that he can easily understand the thought.

Speaker needs to deliver the message with an example of daily life so that a common man can understand. Message from our holy scriptures are very strong and only one single phrase of it can answer many questions.

Summary: For making the Satsang more effective, Guru can deliver the message with daily life examples so it will be convenient for the individual to understand.
