Premanand Maharaj Ji
Why is it so hard to decide what is right, and what helps?
Satsang purifies the intellect to decide rightly
A dirty intellect and a mind full of desire give wrong advice and make us agree to it. Listening to satsang makes the intellect pure and able to decide rightly.
Only through satsang does the intellect become pure and subtle, and only that can decide rightly. Otherwise right decisions are very hard.
