Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I let go of every other thing I was holding onto and reached for one support. I said simply, 'Keep me, keep me safe.'
Through the kindness of the saints, my mind turned clear and clean. I found myself singing the One's praises.
A clear mind is a gift we receive together, not a prize won alone.
Aan ti-aag bha-ay ik aasar — letting go of everything else, I leaned on the One alone. Aasar means support. Saran saran kar aa-ay — I came saying, "Keep me safe, keep me safe."
Sant anugrah bha-ay man nirmal — by the kindness of holy people, the mind becomes nirmal, clean and spotless. Anugrah means kindness and grace. That clearness comes through friendship with others. Think of learning to swim with a coach and friends in the pool. You get there together, not by yourself.
When your thoughts feel cluttered, what kind of company helps them settle?
