Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The most valuable thing you can gain -- the living sense of the One -- comes to you through the doorway of the Guru.
The Great Giver hands it over freely; you do not buy it, you receive it. I am grateful beyond words to the One who gives, and grateful too that being near it loosens the tight knot of pride.
Nanak says: keep the Naam tucked safely in your heart, and let your whole life be a quiet cheer for the Giver who never stops giving.
A reflective verse (Nanak-signed) between the weekdays. laahaa naam -- the best "profit" is the Name, gained through the door of the Guru. aapay dayvai dayvanhaar -- the Giver gives of itself; grace received, never earned. jaikaar -- a cheer, a celebration of the Giver: gratitude itself becomes a practice.
What is the best gift you have ever been given that money could not buy?
