ਮਾਰੂ ਮਹਲਾ ੩ ॥
maaroo mehlaa 3.
Maaroo, Third Mehl:
ਜੋ ਆਇਆ ਸੋ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਜਾਸੀ ॥
jo aa-i-aa so sabh ko jaasee.
All who come shall have to depart.
ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਬਾਧਾ ਜਮ ਫਾਸੀ ॥
doojai bhaa-ay baaDhaa jam faasee.
In the love of duality, they are caught by the noose of the Messenger of Death.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਰਾਖੇ ਸੇ ਜਨ ਉਬਰੇ ਸਾਚੇ ਸਾਚਿ ਸਮਾਈ ਹੇ ॥੧॥
satgur raakhay say jan ubray saachay saach samaa-ee hay. ||1||
Those humble beings who are protected by the True Guru, are saved. They merge into the Truest of the True. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Everyone who comes into this world will one day journey onward; that is simply the shape of things.
A heart lost in seeing-two can find that thought frightening.
But those the Guru shelters are carried safely, and gently gathered home into the Truest of the true.
Every arrival has a journey onward, and a safe way home is always held for us.
Everyone who arrives journeys on. For the heart the Guru shelters, that journey is a safe homecoming into the Truest of the true.
A Question to Sit With
What makes a journey feel safe instead of scary?
