Like how heat flows from a medium of higher temperature to a medium of lower temperature! Like how water flows from a higher altitude to a lower altitude! Like how wind flows from a location of higher pressure to a region of lower pressure! Wisdom flows from a source of fullness and completeness to a recipient who is in a deep sense of receptivity! When the flow reaches a point when the fullness and completeness is the same in the source and recipient, a sense of abiding contentment “SANTHOSHA” pervades and in this state one experiences “SATSANGA”
– Shiva Rishi
An experience of “Satsang” can happen in practically countless settings and scenarios. It can happen when one read a book of an illumined master! Or while sitting quietly under a tree, by the waves of the ocean or when one is sipping a tea watching a mountain peak. It can happen when you are seated at the lotus feet of your Guru.
Being in satsang means to be in company and a scenario that would promote the profound experience of abiding sense of santhosha. Satyananda Yoga Centre creates umpteen opportunities for aspirants to be in a favourable company. Over the last thirty years, even before the establishment of Satyananda Yoga Centre, opportunities for being in satsang have been continuously created for people who came in contact with Satyananda Yoga Centre.
Through A series of Satsang talks, Aradhanas of the Guru Parampara, Seva opportunities, Guru Paduka Puja, Bhajan, Kirtan, study circles, Satsang Shibirs, Yatras, Satyananda Yoga Centre has given opportunities for the people of Tamilnadu to receive the uplifting influence of satsang for thousands of aspirants.
