Verse 2 of 5

Everywhere I Look

ਮਨਹਿ ਪ੍ਰਗਾਸੁ ਪੇਖਿ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੀ ਸੋਭਾ ਜਤ ਕਤ ਪੇਖਉ ਆਹਿਓ ॥੧॥
maneh pargaas paykh parabh kee sobhaa jat kat paykha-o aahi-o. ||1||
My mind is enlightened, gazing upon the Glory of God. Wherever I look, there He is. ||1||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

My mind lights up as I gaze on the glory of the One. Wherever I look, there the One is.

Once your eyes open, you find the One wherever you look.
The deeper layer

When the mind lights up, you find the One wherever you look.

Maneh pargaas: the mind is lit up. Jat kat paykha-o aahi-o: wherever I look, there the One is. The One is present everywhere the eye lands, in every place and every face.

A Question to Sit With

Where do you notice beauty or wonder when you look closely?
