The One Lord is my Anchor and Support; the One Lord alone is the power of my mind.

O Nanak, joining the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, meditate on Him; without the Lord, there is no other at all. ||4||1||136||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One is my Anchor and Support; the One alone is the power of my mind.
O Nanak, joining the company of the holy, meditate on Him; without the One, there is no other at all.
The One is the anchor that holds you steady and the power of your very mind.
The close: the One is "my Anchor and Support" — the thing that holds the soul steady in the storm — and "the power of my mind." The whole of life rests on the One, joined in the Sangat, "without whom there is no other at all".
A Question to Sit With
What is the anchor that keeps you steady when life gets stormy?
