Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
A cool calm settles over you, peaceful and content, and the restless thirst for more finally quiets down.
Your mind stops racing off in every direction and comes home to a clear, settled place.
A restless mind finally comes home. A person becomes seetal, cool and soothed, and full of santokh, contentment, being happy with what you have. Sabh boojhee trisnaa — all the thirst for more is quenched.
Think of a cold glass of water after a long game in the sun. The thirst simply stops.
Then: dah dis dhaavat mit ga-ay — the running in the ten directions stops. The ten directions means everywhere at once. Now the mind lives in the nirmal thaan, the clear, clean place.
What helps your racing mind slow down and settle?
