Sajjana
Sangatya
By doing Meditation, a meditator will become basically enlightened.. but that alone is never enough!
Alongside Meditation, ‘Swadhyaya’ or “Study of Spiritual Books” accompanied by ‘Sajjana-Sangatya’ or “getting into intimate company of Enlightened Masters” is a must!
Keeping good spiritual company “Sajjana Sangatya”, helps us in so many ways. We learn from the enlightened experiences of other masters and we learn to hasten our progress tremendously in the path of spiritual growth. Meditation prepares a person for Swadhyaya and Sajjana Sangatya and they in turn act as a dam against the ocean of ignorance that is the hallmark of every ordinary human.
“”Sajjana-Sangatya””, in particular, transcends mere social interaction within spiritual communities. It's not about seeking a break from the mundaneness of daily life but about collecting and cherishing the spiritual insights shared within these circles. Each interaction is a chance to gather spiritual knowledge, much like collecting precious gems, enriching one's personal journey towards enlightenment.
