Q&A - Don't avoid the Satsang
The sign of ignorance is believing one is too advanced for satsaṅg. Swāmījī gave a clear sign to such disciples: they are highly developed and need not attend. This development is in ignorance, making the thinking mistaken. Regardless of your degree of development, you should go. This question arises from some who, being among groups, think they are high and do not need it. Whoever does not go is the most ignorant. Mahāprabhujī stated the fortunate are those who can go. Every bhajan indicates satsaṅg's importance. You may miss a meal, but do not miss satsaṅg.
"Fortunate are they who can go to satsaṅg."
"You may miss a meal, but do not miss satsaṅg."
