Yes
All the masters say the same thing....
Satsang - company of likeminded people searching for the truth is of
great importance in spiritual life. Otherwise it's hard to keep focus in the midst of thehumdrum of mundane life.
In lack of satsang. spiritual friends and company, the books and writings of teachers and masters can be great support, and is in fact a way of having satsang in your own life anyway.
I had a meditation center and spiritual minded people to be with once a week for many years. This was great support. Now this is not so anymore.
The books of masters and teachers is the substite and inspiration now.
Ram Dass is a great hangout for this purpose and have played a great role in implementing spirituality in the west...
