ਭਰਮ ਮੋਹ ਧ੍ਰੋਹ ਸਭਿ ਨਿਕਸੇ ਜਬ ਕਾ ਦਰਸਨੁ ਪਾਇਆ ॥
bharam moh Dharoh sabh niksay jab kaa darsan paa-i-aa.
Doubt, attachment, and deceit have all disappeared, since I obtained the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan.
ਵਰਤਣਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਚੁ ਕੀਨਾ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੇ ਰੰਗਿ ਸਮਾਇਆ ॥੪॥੧॥੪੦॥
vartan naam naanak sach keenaa har naamay rang samaa-i-aa. ||4||1||40||
Dealing in the Naam, O Nanak, we become truthful, and in the Love of the Lord's Name, we are absorbed. ||4||1 | 40||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Doubt, attachment, and deceit have all vanished since I saw You.
Dealing in the Name, says Nanak, we become true, and we are absorbed in the love of the Name.
Deal in the Name, and you yourself become true.
The close names what the Darshan dissolves: "doubt, attachment, and deceit have all disappeared." And the merchant image returns — "dealing in the Naam, we become truthful": trading in the Name makes you true. The business you give yourself to shapes what you become.
A Question to Sit With
How does what you spend your days 'dealing in' shape the kind of person you become?
