use and people experienced these rewards. After that these
words have remained as merely words. Spiritual prosperity
leads to improved worldly interaction. The latter is a by-product
of the former. The one, who is devoted solely to the Soul,

meets a Gnani Purush but does not attain worldly prosperity,

Here the load of your karmas lightens as you sit in the
satsang and elsewhere the load gets heavier and there is nothing
but endless entanglement (goonchaman). ‘We’ give you absolute
assurance that whatever time you spend here in satsang, during

all the way to the Lord’s satsang, whereas today we have buses,
cars and trains and you are able to reach the satsang right away.

This is the only real satsang in this world and elsewhere
there are relative satsangs. Elsewhere, those who give satsang
harbor some worldly desires, they may want money or sex, or
disciples or fame. If the sign of the shop says ‘shop of anger’,
