The Arc
The closing shabad of the set. It opens making the One the sole support and releasing other hopes. The Rahau names the Name as the inner anchor the holy carry within. The verses tell of the One who preserves, gives, and cherishes with every breath, and of a Guru's teaching that peace comes by flowing with the way life moves. It closes setting down worry and calculation, recognizing the flow of existence — steady, unfading, dyed in love.
