Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Let me keep the nearness of the One as the support of my heart — something to lean on, always there.
When I do, the endless wheel of grasping and losing loosens its grip, and I am free.
This is the Rahao. Har kay charan hirdai kar ot — "make the Lord's feet the support within your heart." Ot means shelter, the thing you lean on. The promise is release from janam maran, the cycle of birth and death — read here not as a threat but as freedom from the exhausting cycle of endless grasping, gaining, and losing that keeps the restless mind spinning. Lean on what is steady, and the spinning stops.
What do you lean on when things feel shaky — and does it actually hold you up?
