Heaviness lifts without a struggle, peace comes home to stay, and two hungers are fed — the body's fill and the soul's Name — under safe keeping.
The Arc
You know the feeling after being sick for a week. One morning you wake up and the heaviness is gone. You did not wrestle it away. The One took it. That night you sleep deep, and a calm feeling comes home and stays. Then it is time to eat. Pull up a chair, everyone, and eat your fill. There is plenty. And while your body is fed, feed the part of you that food cannot reach. Hold the sweet Naam in your heart. You are in the shelter of the Guru, and the Guru keeps you safe. At the centre, the Rahao: the One takes the sickness away, and peace comes home.
