Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Before you ever took your first breath, before anyone could even see you, a hand was already holding you safe. You were cared for from the very start.
And yet it is so easy to walk right past the sweetest thing — the One — and go chasing after stuff that never nourishes. Gently: you can turn back toward what feeds you.
Maat garabh meh haath day raakhi-aa — even before birth, a hand held and protected you. Grace comes first, before we could ever ask or earn it. You were cared for from the very start. Bikhi-aa fal chaakhi-aa — tasting a bitter fruit: walking past what nourishes for what does not. The door stays open to turn back.
What in your life has been quietly taking care of you far longer than you noticed?
