What is Satsang?
Satsang is a Sanskrit word meaning "gathering of truth," is a spiritual practice where seekers come together to share in the presence of truth, wisdom, and light. It is an opportunity to connect deeply with like-minded individuals in a supportive, uplifting environment. Typically, a satsang includes meditation, chanting, and teachings from sacred texts, all aimed at fostering greater inner peace and spiritual awakening.
At its core, satsang is about being in the company of the highest truth — or Sat — which inspires one to deepen their own experience of divine presence and insight. It is said that in such gatherings, the energy of the collective group amplifies the spiritual atmosphere, creating a transformative experience for everyone involved.
As Swami Kriyananda, founder of Ananda, explained, satsang offers "a safe space for spiritual seekers to deepen their understanding, cultivate inner harmony, and awaken to the divine essence within themselves."
Whether through meditation, discussion, or simply being present, satsang provides an opportunity to quiet the mind and open the heart, facilitating profound moments of insight and spiritual growth.
