Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Remembering my dear One again and again, the old fear of death can't come near me anymore.
Freedom and heaven turn out to be right here in the Sangat — that is where a seeking heart finds the One's own home.
You can find heaven right here, in the Sangat.
Simar simar... nikat na aavai jaam — as you keep remembering the One, the fear that people tie to death cannot come near you. The fear melts away. It is like a dark room where a scary shape turns out to be a coat once the light goes on.
Then comes a surprising line: mukat baikunth saaDh kee sangat. Mukat means freedom, and baikunth means heaven. Both are found in saaDh sangat, the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One. They are not only in some faraway place later. They are here, now.
The Sangat becomes har kaa Dhaam, the One's own home.
Is there a group of people who make you feel completely at home? What makes it feel that way?
