“… This implies that of all spiritual endeavours, satsang is the greatest. But what are the characteristics of one who regards satsang as the greatest spiritual endeavour?” The munis answered according to their understanding, but none could give a precise answer. So Shriji Mahãrãj replied, “One who regards satsang as the greatest spiritual endeavour is profoundly attached only to the Sant of God. For example, if a king who is childless receives a son in old age, then even if that son swears at the king or misbehaves, for example, by pulling his moustache, the king would not find faults in him. Even if the son hits another child or causes problems in the village, still the king would never attribute faults to his child. Why? Because the king is profoundly attached to his son. Likewise, only one who develops such profound attachment for the Bhakta of God has realized satsang to be the most redemptive of all spiritual endeavours.”
