Many groups,one satsang
The satsang after Dada Bhagwan's departure was managed by two main heads, the Dada Laxmi Satsang and the Dada Geeta Bhagwan Satsang, and the legacy is continued by many smaller groups for management's sake. From outside they may seem different, as the slices of a melon do, but inside it is one. There may be more than one group in a city; they respect each other.
Every group keeps the same principles of Dada Bhagwan with its best abilities and understanding. Commonly we call it the Dada Bhagwan Satsang. There is no competition and no comparison, because the foundation is so strong, and because it is a journey inside.
He was like a flame which ignited flames, and there is no distinction between the flames when the light is noticed. The fire is always the same; the candles may be different colours. The list is endless: every city has its own torch.
