'association with the good'), also rendered satsang, is a gathering of good people for the performance of devotional activities. It also refers to an audience with a Satguru for yogic instruction. Satsangas are group events, organised by various spiritual organisations.

The word Satsang is made up of Sat, meaning truth, and Sang, which means together. A Satsang, therefore, is a gathering together to seek truth. Sometimes it is described as a gathering to discuss truth but, unless the participants are enlightened, this would probably be an overstatement of their abilities.

Satsang is an aid on the yogic path to moksha (liberation from suffering and the cycle of death and rebirth). It helps to remove the negative thoughts, material attachments, and mental obstacles that block this path.

Satsang is the heart of the yoga practice. It consists of 30 minutes of silent meditation, meditative chanting of mantras and an easy-to-follow lecture on yoga philosophy or psychology. Satsang is the gateway to inner peace and new horizons.
