Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have come to see the One — perfect, beyond reach of my small grasp, and full of wonder.
Nanak says: the One's Name has become my wealth, received through the open kindness of the perfect Guru.
Darishtee aa-i-aa — "came into view," the One seen. Three words pile up on it: pooran (perfect, complete), agam (beyond reach, ungraspable), and bismaad — wonder, awe, the breath caught. That last word is the heart of Waheguru: the feeling of astonishment. And the wealth named — raam naam dhan — arrives pooray gur parsaad, through the perfect Guru's grace: not seized or earned but received, the way sunlight is received when you step out of the shadow.
When was the last time something took your breath away and made you feel small in a good way?
