In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, sing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises.

This place is found through the Guru. ||1||Second Pause||7||58||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
In the company of the holy, sing the praises of the One.
This place is found through the Guru.
The place you're searching for is the company of the devoted — found through the Guru.
Here at last is the answer to the seeker's question.
This is a second pause line, a second center for the shabad. Where is the place of forever-praise? It is the Saadh Sangat, the company of the holy, people gathered in love for the One. And "this place is found through the Guru."
It is not a dot on a map. It is more like a team huddle. The place is made by the people in it and the song they share. Wherever the devoted gather and sing, that is where living praise is found.
A Question to Sit With
Who makes up the 'company' where your best self comes alive?
