Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Keeping the One in mind, I've found a deep, settled well-being. At home and out in the world alike, there is peace and an easy, natural balance all around me.
Keeping the One in mind brings a peace that goes everywhere with you.
This is the Rahao, the "pause" line, the center of the shabad. Parabh simrat kusal sabh paa-ay — remembering the One, I found complete well-being. Kusal means being well, all the way through.
The key word is sahj. It means the easy, natural calm of someone who has stopped fighting themselves. And this peace is ghar baahar, at home and outside. It is not a calm that only lasts in a quiet room. It holds in the noisy lunch hall too. Think of a phone that keeps its charge all day, not only while it is plugged in. That is how you know it is real sahj: it travels with you.
Where do you feel most at ease — and could you carry a little of that calm into the busier parts of your day?
