ਗਿਆਨ ਧਿਆਨ ਮਾਨ ਦਾਨ ਮਨ ਰਸਿਕ ਰਸਨ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪਤ ਤਹ ਪਾਪ ਖੰਡਲੀ ॥੧॥
gi-aan Dhi-aan maan daan man rasik rasan naam japat tah paap khandlee. ||1||
Spiritual wisdom, meditation, faith and charity are there; their minds savor the Taste of the Naam, the Name of the Lord. Chanting it, sins are destroyed. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Wisdom, meditation, faith and giving are all found there.
Their minds savor the taste of the Naam. Chanting it, wrongs are broken to pieces.
When your heart tastes something sweet, the old sour taste loses its hold.
Where people remember the One together, wisdom, meditation, faith and giving are all found, and the taste of the Naam breaks wrongdoing apart.
Gi-aan Dhi-aan maan daan: wisdom, meditation, inner alignment and giving, gathered together. Rasik rasan naam japat: the mind savors the Naam like a taste. Paap khandlee: wrongs break apart. Remembering is a flavor to enjoy, never a chore done by rote; the sweet crowds out the sour.
A Question to Sit With
What good thing, when you focus on it, crowds out the bad feelings?
