Remembering what you love calms the mind; the One who lives in the heart makes humility natural.
The Arc
A brief, gentle shabad. The rahau: remembering the Name, the mind finds peace, and in the company of the devoted the One's praises are sung. The first verse feels the One come, by grace, to dwell in the heart, and lays the forehead at the feet of the devoted. The close calls the mind to remember the Supreme and keep listening, as one turned toward the Guru, to the One's praises.
