Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Wisdom, respect, plenty, calm, deep joy — all of it seems to arrive together for the person who keeps the One close through every moment.
Hold that One of endless joy in mind, breath by breath, and these gifts follow like light follows the sunrise.
Many good things arrive together when you keep the One close.
Mat pat Dhan sukh sahj anandaa — wisdom, respect, plenty, peace, and easy joy. Sahj is a calm that comes naturally, without forcing. These gifts come as a bunch, like grapes on one stem.
Ik nimakh na visrahu parmaanandaa — do not forget, even for a blink, the One of highest joy. Parmaananda means "the One of supreme joy." In plain words: keep the One close in every moment.
The gifts do not come first. They follow from staying close to the source of joy. Think of light that follows the sunrise. You do not chase the light. You just face the sun.
What is one small way you could keep something good close through the day instead of forgetting it by lunchtime?
