Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Through the love the teacher awakens, the soul finds the Beloved it was made for. Then the long night of life is spent in peace, with the One kept close inside the heart.
Holding the One near, day and night, the ache of missing melts away.
Deep in the quiet room of your own inner self, you can be near the Beloved — turning the teaching over, drinking in the sweetness of the Name morning and night, until the pull in two directions falls away.
This is how the soul meets what is truly real, through a love without any edges or end.
Where Pauri 0 named the problem — a crowded, divided heart — this pauri is the meeting. Amrit naam pee-aa: drinking the nectar of the Name is the central image. Naam here is not a magic word but the living presence of the One held in awareness, day and night. The "mansion of the inner being" (antar mahal) locates the whole encounter inside — nothing external is required; the meeting place is your own quiet depth. Dubidhaa is defeated again, echoing Pauri 0: the settled soul is no longer split. The gur kai hayt apaaraa — the boundless love of the teaching — is the current that carries the whole thing.
Where is the quiet place inside you that you can go to when you need to feel steady?
