Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Your sorrows begin to lift when your heart deals in the Name — when remembering the One becomes the coin your life trades in.
A heart turned away and caught in “me and mine” stays heavy and sad, split by loving two things at once. But listen: in the Sangat, the sweet, healing words wash old regrets and mistakes away.
Nanak says: even the hot tangles of the heart — wanting, and anger, and the wish to hurt — quietly loosen and fall, for anyone touched by the mercy of the One.
Jhajha is a healing Pauri. Jhooran mitai tumaaro — "your sorrows shall depart" — when you "deal in" the Name (raam naam si-o kar bi-uhaaro): remembering becomes the currency of daily life. The saakat is a heart in a heavy state — a heart turned away... stays heavy and sad, split by loving two things at once. The gift, listed plainly: kaam krodh and darustaa-ee (desire, anger, the wish to harm) jhareh — brushed away — through amrit kathaa heard in satsang, the Sangat, and through mercy. A tender promise: sorrow and the "hot tangles" of the heart loosen and fall away in the Sangat and in grace.
When you’ve felt tangled up with a hard feeling, what kind of company or words helped it loosen?
