Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
In every direction, in every world you could imagine, the One is already present, filling it all.
And it's never short of anything — never lacking, never running low. Whatever it does, it does completely.
A Shalok of fullness. Chaar kunt chaudah bhavan — "the four corners and the fourteen worlds" — is the traditional map of all existence, top to bottom; the One biaapat, pervades every bit of it. Then a quietly reassuring line: oon na daykheeai — "nothing is seen to be lacking" — pooran taa kay kaam, "its works are perfectly complete." After several verses diagnosing the mind's restless lack — the hunger that won't fill, the thirst that won't quench — this Shalok answers with the opposite quality: the One is never short of anything. The seeker's emptiness meets the One's fullness. It sets up the next day-verse, which spells that fullness out across all of creation.
What might change if you trusted that the Source you come from is never running low?
