Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
We would have reason to be sad if the One were a cruel ruler.
We would have reason to be sad if the One made us suffer by mistake.
The Guru has told me that everything that happens comes from the One.
So I have let go of sadness, and now I sleep without a worry.
Whatever happens comes from the One, so you can set worry down and sleep in peace.
Achint sotay, "I sleep without anxiety," is one of Guru Arjan's most tender images. Trust shows up here as the ability to finally relax. The Guru's teaching, jo ho-ay sabh prabh tay, whatever happens is from the One, becomes, in the body, a good night's sleep.
What would help you sleep with a lighter, quieter mind tonight?
