In the whole movement of life, we often invest much of our time in the fulfillment of our desires, whether it be for knowledge, wealth, or even the desire for enlightenment. The universe being in an unceasing stream of change, as one continues living, there is a growing sense that whatsoever one achieves, whatsoever one does, it cannot provide anything more than temporary satisfaction. Though this sense of what it is which is lacking is so vague, what is crystal clear is that something is missing, that one’s life has not yet managed to blossom into a great celebration. Unable to find the cause of our discontentment, we continue searching outwardly for the source of our happiness, not realizing that it is one’s state of consciousness from moment to moment which determines our experience of life. Eventually, a certain hunger starts forming to come to know of a way of being which is beyond our present limitations, whether there is a possibility of living in a state of unbounded freedom which is choiceless.
Satsang means a community of truth, that is, a community which has gathered together for the common purpose of discussing the realities of life and living. Through a series of questions and answers with the master, the meetings offer an intimate encounter of silence, bliss, and wisdom as Amir Mourad shares his insight into the “spiritual” and the “material” dimensions of life. Open to all, though words may be said, to those who are receptive it is an opportunity for a glimpse of the inexpressible.
