Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Some harms, once truly set in motion, are hard for anyone to stop — the natural results follow.
A person who lives by tearing others down finds it costs them, both now and later, in the way they are remembered.
Aagai paachhai mandee so-ay — "here and hereafter, an ill reputation." The pauri is not calling for anyone to be destroyed; it is describing consequence. A life built on cruelty leaves a trail — a so-ay, a name, a reputation — that follows a person. In the project's lens this is the mirror of karma: not fate imposed from outside, but the natural echo of how you have treated others. The invitation is quiet: build a name worth carrying.
What kind of name — what reputation — would you like to leave behind you as you go through life?
