ਚਾਲਤ ਬੈਸਤ ਸੋਵਤ ਹਰਿ ਜਸੁ ਮਨਿ ਤਨਿ ਚਰਨ ਖਟਾਨੀ ॥੨॥
chaalat baisat sovat har jas man tan charan khataanee. ||2||
Walking, sitting and sleeping, I chant the Lord's Praises; I treasure His Feet in my mind and body. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Walking, sitting, and sleeping, I chant the One's praises;
I treasure His Feet in my mind and body.
Walking, sitting, sleeping — the whole of life can become one continuous remembrance.
Praise in every posture — "walking, sitting and sleeping" — with the Feet "treasured in my mind and body." The whole self, in every state, given to remembrance. Devotion is not an activity among others but the texture of the entire life (cf. Shabad 152).
