Introduction
Welcome to 21 days chanting session. This session is for your benefit. Just a little preparation from your side will maximize the benefit of this session. Can we make sure:
1. we are in a quiet place. We are sitting very comfortably with a stable body.
2. we are going to keep our mind 100% with chanting for the purification.
Alright! Today is the 17th day of transformation. The chanting theme for today is Satsang. Satsang consists of two words- Sat and Sang meaning companion of truth. Satsang is the prerequisite of a spiritual journey. It is satsang which provides us a clear understanding of the Entities to be realized. Satsang brings about the transformation in one’s life, and inspires to start the practice of meditation. So let’s dive into the Swarved Doha recitation.

Without Satsang or spiritual discourse, life is filled with the darkness of ignorance. Satsang transforms a person from ignorant to intelligent. It brings good virtues to a person. Satsang dispels negativity and brings happiness in life. It helps in steering life in the right direction. It is the easiest way to gain brahmavidya knowledge quickly.
Concluding Message
These 21 days of chanting therapy is dedicated to the birth anniversary celebration of his holiness Sant Pravar Sri Vigyandeo ji Maharaj- The divine message for today is –”Spirituality is not an intellectual exercise!”
It is often observed that people try to discuss an argument the concepts of spirituality from the intellectual point of view. They try to understand the deep secrets of spirituality through the spectacles of logic and rationale. However, here Sant Pravar Shri Vigyan Dev Ji Maharaj is explaining that spirituality is a lot more than just a brainstorming exercise. It is a science of self – experience and goes far beyond our physical and mental capabilities.
