If every day of one's life, if every hour and moment of our life, if it has to be

a process of growth and not stagnation, it is important that we are in constant communion

with that which is the ultimate truth, in identifying ourselves with limited aspects of who we are,

we are either defied with many things. If you, I have seen in the families, sometimes, different people have different plates to eat.

In case you change the plates and give, there will be a big argument. The plates don't taste nor can you eat them.

It neither tastes good nor does it nourish you, but the plate, this is my plate, I will not eat in your plate, the very important thing.

So anything that you touch, anything that you sit upon, anything that you set your eyes upon, you get identified.

What this means is, let's say, you don't know how to drive.

The many people who are doing this, particularly I see two wheeler drivers, you will see that brake light is always burning because they got the brake half down and their one leg is down.

This man is heading for a big mess. If you want to ride, both your legs should be up and your legs should be off the brake unless it's needed.

Have you seen people going around with the brake light on all the time? Because they got the brakes, because they think it's safe to keep the brakes down.

As you get identified with this thing and that thing and that thing, you're throwing your anchor, hoping your ship will go somewhere, it'll only sink.

It's only one place it can go. I'm like this, it can go only like this.

So Satsangatva means what this four lines are trying to tell you is just this, that if you're in communion with truth,

your associations will be just associations, not attachments.

You will know involvement in life, but you will not know entanglement in your life.

Because it's not because it's right or wrong, with brakes on, if you try to go somewhere, you will burn yourself up.

And then your think life is a miserable thing. Yes, if you have brakes fully on and try to drive, it is.

Driving is a miserable process, no question about that.

So if one has to constantly be on the move, if one has to let his life fly, not crawl, if one has to evolve, if evolution is an ongoing process for you.

If your idea of evolution is only to the extent that Charles Darwin endorsed it,

that is, your spine got little shorter, you know it used to be long and hanging out.
