ਕਲਿਆਨ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥
kali-aan mehlaa 5.
Kalyaan, Fifth Mehl:
ਮਨਿ ਤਨਿ ਜਾਪੀਐ ਭਗਵਾਨ ॥
man tan jaapee-ai bhagvaan.
Within my mind and body I meditate on the Lord God.
ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੇ ਸੁਪ੍ਰਸੰਨ ਭਏ ਸਦਾ ਸੂਖ ਕਲਿਆਨ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
gur pooray suparsan bha-ay sadaa sookh kali-aan. ||1|| rahaa-o.
The Perfect Guru is pleased and satisfied; I am blessed with eternal peace and happiness. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
With my mind and body, I meditate on the Lord.
The perfect Guru is pleased with me, and I am blessed with peace and happiness forever.
Wellbeing that lasts comes from a mind and body settled in what is true.
Meditate on the One with mind and body, and lasting peace and wellbeing come.
This is the rahaa-o, the "pause" line, the center of the shabad. Man tan jaapee-ai: mind and body remembering. Gur pooray suparsan: the perfect Guru is fully pleased. Sadaa sookh kali-aan: lasting peace and wellbeing. Kali-aan is the very word that names the raag, here spoken as its promise.
A Question to Sit With
What gives you a peace that lasts, not just a quick fix?
