SATSANG — (3).
No matter what kind of bad atmosphere is affecting us; if by the grace of God, we feel the waves of good Sanskaras and if we catch and learn the art of catching such waves of good Sanskaras, we can create new life for us. Moreover, even if we are surrounded by bad atmosphere and if we take advantage of Satsang (company of good and holy people) because of good Sanskars, it is always beneficent to us. We may be under the effect of old bad atmosphere for a while but it does not take long to create beautiful new atmosphere if we do not have attraction of the old and have removed our mind and heart from old atmosphere (by doing heartfelt Naam - Smaran with Bhava). When our mind and heart start enjoying Naam-Smaran, there is nothing that can change that new atmosphere. Just as there are attractions of bad things, attraction of this is lot more attractive, if we have intense and constant desire for it. In fact, human being's inner vruttie is to turn to Bhagwan. This way, atmosphere plays a major role in our development.
