Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I am satisfied and full, steady deep inside my heart, and I no longer waver back and forth. The teaching gave me a treasure that can never be used up — it never shrinks, and it never runs out.
Real contentment is a treasure that never runs out.
Taripat aghaa-ay — satisfied and full. This is the opposite of trisnaa, the endless craving. It is a fullness that finally stops the dolan, the wobbling back and forth of a restless heart.
Then comes the akhut khajaanaa, the treasure that never runs out. This is how Gurbani speaks of the Name. Money shrinks as you spend it. This treasure grows the more you draw from it. It is like a candle that lights other candles and loses none of its own flame.
Contentment here does not mean putting up with having little. It means discovering you have plenty.
What is a good thing in your life that grows, rather than shrinks, the more you share it?
