ਮਨਿ ਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪਹੁ ਜਗਜੀਵਨ ਰਿਦ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਅਲਖੁ ਲਖਾਇਆ ॥੧੨॥
man mukh naam japahu jagjeevan rid antar alakh lakhaa-i-aa. ||12||
Chant the Naam with your mind and mouth; know the unknowable Lord, the Life of the World, deep within the nucleus of your heart. ||12||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Through the Guru's wisdom, holy people become friends and family.
Through it, the hot inner fire cools and calms.
Say the Name with mind and mouth, and know the One who is the very life of the world, right in the center of your heart.
Holy friends and the Naam together cool the fire inside.
Holy people become companions. The inner fire of anger and craving cools. Jagjeevan is the One as the life of the world, found in the center of the heart.
A Question to Sit With
Who cools you down when you're heated up inside?
