Raag Goojaree
Commentary

Raag Devgandhaari, Fifth Mehl (Guru Arjan)

Accepted whole — the Giver to the unworthy.

(Filed in the 06-Raag-Goojaree folder, which spans into Raag Devgandhaari.)

The Arc

Mercy that bears with all one's merits and demerits, undoing the inner forces of self-destruction (P0); grace defined as the gift to the unworthy (P1).

Translation Notes

  • P0 'sinner, hypocritical and greedy' is rendered as honest self-acknowledgment held within acceptance, not self-contempt; the 'wicked ones' as inner self-destructive forces undone by grace, per the voice rules.
