Only existence of God is experienced & not His real nature
The real Satsanga


   Therefore, Satsanga does not mean discussion about God by devotees because it will be just like the discussion of born blind people about God.  Sat means Satguru or the absolute God in human form, who can alone explain about the unimaginable God at least by negating whatever so far experienced.  Sat means the absolute reality, which is nothing but absolute God [Para Brahman], who is unattainable by any one even in imagination.  Sanga means attainment of such absolute God.  This is self contradiction because the unattainable God can never be attained.

 This contradiction can be removed because the absolute God mediated in a human form is attained and not the absolute God.  The devotees recognize only the existence of absolute God in the human form and not the real nature of God.  Only the existence of God is experienced and not His real nature [Asteetyeva….Veda].  Therefore, still God remains unimaginable even in the experience of contemporary human incarnation of God.  Here you have attained the medium of God and not God directly.  Therefore, God still remains unattainable. 

Thus, Satsanga means the attainment of contemporary human incarnation of God, who will preach you at least that God is not any imaginable item for human beings.  He will at least make you experience the existence of unimaginable nature of God so that you will say that God exists.  This experience of unimaginable nature of God is called as the experience of absolute God [Brahmaanubhuti or Brahmajnana].   

If you catch Satguru, you will be towards the right direction to God.  This is the real Satsanga, which leads you to the salvation finally without any effort.

 Catching Satguru is like putting your foot on the first step of escalator as said by Shankara [Satsangatve….].  Attaining Satguru is the final step of your effort and Shankara stops by this step [Mahapurushasamshrayah].  The power of the preaching of Satguru is so much excellent that it will lead you to decision and practice.  Practice [karma] must give fruit.  This means that attainment of Satguru will bring you fruit directly since the intermediate steps like hearing His knowledge, coming to decision by the power of His knowledge, decision leading to practice and practice giving result are spontaneous.
