Aasaa, Fifth Mehl:
ਹਭੇ ਥੋਕ ਵਿਸਾਰਿ ਹਿਕੋ ਖਿਆਲੁ ਕਰਿ ॥
habhay thok visaar hiko khi-aal kar.
Forget all other things, and dwell upon the Lord alone.
ਝੂਠਾ ਲਾਹਿ ਗੁਮਾਨੁ ਮਨੁ ਤਨੁ ਅਰਪਿ ਧਰਿ ॥੧॥
jhoothaa laahi gumaan man tan arap Dhar. ||1||
Lay aside your false pride, and dedicate your mind and body to Him. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Forget all other things, and dwell upon the One alone.
Lay aside your false pride, and dedicate your mind and body to Him.
Drop the clutter and the pride, and give yourself, mind and body, to the One.
A clear instruction: "forget all other things, and dwell upon the Lord alone." Single-minded focus, joined to laying aside "false pride" and dedicating "mind and body." The path is concentration plus surrender — drop the rest, drop the pride, give yourself.
A Question to Sit With
What 'other things' clutter your attention away from what matters most?
