Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehl:
ਸਰਬ ਸੁਖਾ ਗੁਰ ਚਰਨਾ ॥
sarab sukhaa gur charnaa.
All peace is found in the Guru's feet.
ਕਲਿਮਲ ਡਾਰਨ ਮਨਹਿ ਸਧਾਰਨ ਇਹ ਆਸਰ ਮੋਹਿ ਤਰਨਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
kalimal daaran maneh saaDhaaran ih aasar mohi tarnaa. ||1|| rahaa-o.
They drive away my sins and purify my mind; their Support carries me across. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
All peace is found at the teaching's feet.
It clears away my wrongs, cleans my mind, and its support carries me across.
Peace isn't a state you build by effort — it's found by drawing near and letting yourself be carried.
The Pause line locates "all peace" in one place — humble nearness to the teaching. Peace is not a state you build by effort but a gift found by drawing near and letting the teaching "purify" and "carry" you. Rest at the feet, and the peace is there.
A Question to Sit With
Where do you find peace by drawing near rather than by trying harder?
