ਭਰਮੇ ਆਵੈ ਭਰਮੇ ਜਾਇ ॥
bharmay aavai bharmay jaa-ay.
In doubt he comes, and in doubt he goes.
ਇਹੁ ਜਗੁ ਜਨਮਿਆ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ॥
ih jag janmi-aa doojai bhaa-ay.
This world is born out of the love of duality.
ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਨ ਚੇਤੈ ਆਵੈ ਜਾਇ ॥੨॥
manmukh na chaytai aavai jaa-ay. ||2||
The self-willed manmukh does not remember the Lord; he continues coming and going in reincarnation. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Lost in doubt he arrives, and lost in doubt he leaves. The whole world is born out of love for division. Living for the ego, he forgets the One and keeps going round and round.
A life framed by doubt and division just keeps circling.
Doubt frames a whole life -- comes in doubt, goes in doubt. The root is duality, the source of the world's restlessness, and the self-facing person who forgets stays in the cycle (Gurmukh/Manmukh).
A Question to Sit With
What doubt keeps cycling through your mind? What might settle it?
