Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
“Prahlaad has led all the other students astray. He does not listen to what I say, and he does things his own way. He has spread love for the One all through the town.”
The gathering of wicked people could do nothing against him.
The grown-ups complain about Prahlaad, but they cannot stop him.
They say he is spoiling the other students. He will not listen to them, and he does things his own way. Then comes the part they fear most: sabh nagree meh bhagat darirhaa-ee — he has spread love for the One all through the town.
What they call spoiling is love spreading, like a laugh that moves around a classroom. And dusat sabhaa kaa kichh na vasaa-ee: the crowd that stood against him could do nothing. A true thing a person knows in their heart cannot be forced out of them by any crowd.
Have you ever held on to something you believed even when others tried to talk you out of it?
