ਘਰ ਮਹਿ ਘਰੁ ਜੋ ਦੇਖਿ ਦਿਖਾਵੈ ॥
ghar meh ghar jo daykh dikhaavai.
The Guru sees and reveals the Lord's home, deep within the home of the self;
ਗੁਰ ਮਹਲੀ ਸੋ ਮਹਲਿ ਬੁਲਾਵੈ ॥
gur mahlee so mahal bulaavai.
He ushers the soul-bride into the Mansion of the Lord's Presence.
ਮਨ ਮਹਿ ਮਨੂਆ ਚਿਤ ਮਹਿ ਚੀਤਾ ॥
man meh manoo-aa chit meh cheetaa.
When the mind remains in the mind, and the consciousness in the consciousness,
ਐਸੇ ਹਰਿ ਕੇ ਲੋਗ ਅਤੀਤਾ ॥੫॥
aisay har kay log ateetaa. ||5||
such people of the Lord remain unattached. ||5||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Guru sees the One's home, deep inside the home of your own self, and shows it to you.
The Guru leads you into the palace where the One lives.
When the mind stays at home in the mind, and the heart stays at home in the heart, such people of the One stay free of every pull.
There is a quiet home deep inside you; the Guru calls you into it.
The One's home is deep inside you, and the Guru shows it to you and calls you in.
Ghar meh ghar jo dekh dikhaavai — the home within the home: the One's presence deep inside you, which the Guru reveals and invites you into. Aise har ke log ateetaa: the One's people are ateet — unattached, no longer pulled around.
A Question to Sit With
Where is the quietest place inside you that you can go to settle down?
