Say the Naam, and peace comes to meet you; the more you remember, the more you are filled.
The Arc
Say the Naam, and peace comes. The more you say it, the more peace grows. People who love the One long for it every moment. Other cravings lose their taste. Following the Guru, the One starts to taste sweet, and your own words turn sweet too. Listening, your mind softens and comes home. A quiet music plays there. Gold bracelets and fancy clothes feel flat without the Naam. Selfish habits pile up like scrap metal and pull you under. Awe and letting go become your boat, and the Guru steers. Forgetting is like sleep. Wisdom wakes you up. The One moves you along. At the centre, the Rahao: the more you remember the One, the more peace you find.
