ਆਪਿ ਨ ਬਉਰਾ ਰਾਮ ਕੀਓ ਬਉਰਾ ॥
aap na ba-uraa raam kee-o ba-uraa.
I have not made myself go insane - the Lord made me go insane.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਜਾਰਿ ਗਇਓ ਭ੍ਰਮੁ ਮੋਰਾ ॥੨॥
satgur jaar ga-i-o bharam moraa. ||2||
The True Guru has burnt away my doubt. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I did not decide to feel this way — the One reached in and did it. This wonder is not something I manufactured.
And the Guru's light burned right through my doubts, the way sunrise burns off fog.
This kind of wonder is received, not manufactured.
aap na bauraa raam kee-o bauraa — the ecstasy is grace, received, not manufactured. satgur jaar ga-i-o bharam moraa — the Guru burns away bharam (doubt and illusion). Pure grace-language: this is given, not seized.
A Question to Sit With
When has something felt like it happened to you rather than by you?
