Why Go to SATSANG?







Why Go to SATSANG?






A SATSANG goer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained


that it made no sense to go to SATSANG every Sunday.


'I've gone to SATSANG for 30 years now,' he wrote, 'and in that time I have


heard something like 3,000 SATSANGS. But for the life of me, I can't


remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the


SPEAKERS are wasting theirs by giving SATSANGS to us all.'






This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor' column, much


to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher:






'I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some


32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for


a single one of those meals. But I do know this. They all nourished me and


gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me


these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone


to SATSANG for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!'
