ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮ ਕੀ ਮਨਿ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ॥
har har naam kee man pareet.
My mind is filled with love for the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.
ਮਿਲਿ ਸਾਧ ਬਚਨ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਧਿਆਏ ਮਹਾ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਰੀਤਿ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
mil saaDh bachan gobind Dhi-aa-ay mahaa nirmal reet. ||1|| rahaa-o.
Meeting the Holy Saint, under His Instruction, I meditate on the Lord of the Universe, in the most immaculate way. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
My mind is full of love for the One's name.
Meeting the good, and under their guidance, I hold the One in mind in the cleanest way.
It's love, not technique, that clears the inner shadows — and love is kindled in good company, not solitary striving.
The Pause line names the source of the clearing in P0: a mind "filled with love." It is love, not technique, that does the work — and love is kindled "meeting the Holy Saint." The phrase "in the most immaculate way" suggests that remembrance guided by good company is purer than solitary striving; the companionship keeps the practice honest and clean. Love learned in good company is the engine under all the freedom of P0.
A Question to Sit With
Where has being around the right people taught you to love something more purely than you could alone?
