Shloka recital by Sri Neelakantan ji- Geet Chapter 11- 54th Verse
Satsang is a Sanskrit term derived from two roots: sat meaning "true’" and sangha meaning community, company, or association. It can be translated as "associating with good people" or simply "being in the company of truth," and refers to the act of gathering with Sattvic-minded, uplifting beings, especially spiritual seekers.
Satsang is different from any course or lecture because the energy field in it allows for clarity, stillness, and expanded awareness to be experienced by those who seek it.
Whenever something increases your awareness of the Truth, it opens your Heart and quiets your mind.
Satsang is one of the most effective means of transcending your mind and staying in the egoless state which can be called enlightenment, liberation, freedom, moksha, nirvana or simply abiding in Self.
We call our Satsang lovingly as Bhagavan Satsang as they are all due to his grace, Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi.
According to Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi Satsang means only Atma Sang(Association with Self). Those who are trying to be in Self can come in the company of realized beings/Sadhus/Saints/Sages and that is also Satsang. Those who come in the company of Jivanmuktas also become Jivanmuktas.
Bhagavan explained the importance of Satsang by quoting Tayumanuvar, Suta Samhita, and Kaivalya Navanitam.
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi is widely thought of as one of the most outstanding Indian spiritual teachers of recent times. Having attained enlightenment at the age of 16, he was drawn to the holy mountain of Arunachala in southern India and remained there for the rest of his life. Arunachala mountain itself is considered to be self-manifested Lingam, an incarnation of Lord Shiva. Just by looking at it with reverence liberation will happen.
Attracted by his stillness, quietness, and teachings, thousands sought his guidance on issues ranging from the nature of God to daily life.
The philosophy of Advaita or Non-Duality has become, along with Buddhism, one of the most popular spiritual paths being pursued by those interested in enlightenment today. During the past three decades, Advaita has become more widely recognized in the West through the ever-growing popularity of Ramana Maharshi. His point of view has for its aim Self-realization. The central path taught in this philosophy is the inquiry into the nature of Self, the content of the notional 'I-thought'. Carl Jung wrote of Ramana: “Sri Ramana is a true son of the Indian earth. He is genuine and, in addition to that, something quite phenomenal. In India, he is the whitest spot in a white space. What we find in the life and teachings of Sri Ramana is the purest of India; with its breath of world-liberated and liberating humanity, it is a chant of millenniums.”
Om Peace Peace Peace.

Realizing no pleasure of senses And watching and seeing ego when it speaks Up…then tell the ego to stop it!

Audio quality makes it difficult to follow....but content is truth

[@jamesjosheph3006]

I think vasana is Thrishna or Thanaha. So right, initially efforts may be required. Ego is required for worldly affairs, to survival. But in spirituality, Ego is an obstacle. And repeated actions become our culture.., And many qualities are genetical memory...Let us hear repeatedly these valuable videos and ask grace to dissolve into the truth. DO NOT THINK I CANNOT . I heard from desciples of Vivekananda, that he used to get angry with a monk at vellurmatt and later he lamented saying his guru never got angry . Also he wept in Mumbai, when a friend died.... Senai, Senai, means gradually.... Focus on self., Things just happen. Not we do. Just surrender. If all this entire cosmos moves so precisely, why we should suffer? Once we know a glimpse of our Self, things may affect momentarily only. If we hear what people talk, it is just throwing garbage on each other To know the beauty of Silence, sit alone on a seashore or in a forest. Don't do anything, just sit, sit only..... Hear this Guru repeatedly is enough.... 🙏👍🌳

It cannot be the body which behaves like a Gopi it is the mind in the body that behaves like a Gopi when Brahman is attained Hari om

[@magorzatawarowna4751]

I am boiling 😅❤

[@bhargavidr.2193]

how to stay focused at heart or inbtwn eye brows or where to focus

[@rafequetbava]

The great person who is speaking in the middle of satsang carries a very sharp noice with hard Tamil slang.this is stealing or draining the spirit of our listening to the original speech. I am not interested in criticizing anyone but .my practical difficulty in hearing and understanding the original satsang
