The One Is Found Through the Teacher's Teaching

ਰਾਮ ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਬਚਨਿ ਹਰਿ ਪਾਇਆ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
raam gur kai bachan har paa-i-aa. ||1|| rahaa-o.
I have found the Lord, through the Teachings of the Guru. ||1||Pause||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

Through the teaching of the teacher, I have found the One.

The One is found through the teacher's teaching -- simple as that.

A one-line Rahao: the simplest statement of the whole path -- the One is found through the Guru's teaching. Everything else is commentary on this.

A Question to Sit With

What is the simplest true thing you have learned about how to live?
