There are only two areas in the world. One is Divine,Satya and the other is Material,Asatya. God and his saints who are beyond Maya alone are 'satya'. Association with them through the complete involvement of the mind and intellect is referred to as 'satsanga', 'divine association'. Anything or anyone else apart from this naturally comes under the three modes of Maya-'Tamasa','Rajasa' and 'Sattvik'. Therefore,association with this area is referred to as 'Kusanga','Material association'.In short,whatever leads to the attachment of the mind and intellect to the divine is "Satsanga",apart from this,everything else is "Kusanga" or 'wrong association'.
Very true.
ReplyDeleteWow so beautifully explained the difference between satsang and kusang. Thank you maharaja ji
ReplyDeleteTo keep the intellect in constant satsang: this is the secret of surrender as outlined by Jagadguru Shri Kripaluji Maharaj
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately not many people are aware of divine world. They think material world is the only world and God is there to help them feel materially comfortable. But those who have gained knowledge of Shri Krishna Tattva with grace of Guru or Saint, they are the lucky ones in material world. And they should help others with knowledge of Divine world.
ReplyDeleteIts only the fortunate souls can realize how lucky we are, to get this divine knowledge of Satsang, and Kusang. It is the foundation to make spiritual progress.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to know that even Sattavik nature is also lies under Kusanga! Beautiful definition of Satsanga and Kusanga. Thanks for the ultimate knowledge!
ReplyDeleteWhere should we attach our mind and why, is very clearly mentioned in the short and concise words.
ReplyDeleteGrateful for guidance from Maharaji. Associate with those that will allow for spiritual progress.
ReplyDeleteSatsang is the association of the mind and intellect with the God and his saints (God-realized) and anything else is Kusang. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully explained the difference between satsang and kusang. Where should we attach our mind and why, is very clearly mentioned in the short and concise words.
ReplyDeleteThank you Maharajji, for your divine guidance.
ReplyDeleteVery nice explaination by MaharajJi.We fail to identify the difference in the world and keep going in circles and could not associate steadily with faith. Thank you MaharajJi.
ReplyDeleteWhen mind is attached to Divine realm it is Satsang and when towards material world it is Kusang.
ReplyDeleteSo true. We should constantly practice our association with satya and try to move away from asatya
