ਅਨਲ ਵਾਉ ਭਰਮਿ ਭੁਲਾਈ ॥

Fire and wind lead him into delusions of doubt.
ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹਿ ਸੁਧਿ ਨ ਕਾਈ ॥
maa-i-aa mohi suDh na kaa-ee.
In love and attachment to Maya, he has no understanding at all.
ਮਨਮੁਖ ਅੰਧੇ ਕਿਛੂ ਨ ਸੂਝੈ ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਪ੍ਰਗਾਸੀ ਹੇ ॥੧੪॥
manmukh anDhay kichhoo na soojhai gurmat naam pargaasee hay. ||14||
The blind, self-willed manmukh sees nothing; through the Guru's Teachings, the Naam is gloriously revealed. ||14||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Restlessness and stirred-up feelings can wrap the mind in a fog of doubt.
Lost in the shine of things, it cannot quite see.
But the Guru's teaching lights it up, and the Naam shines out, clear at last.
The Guru's teaching lifts the fog of doubt so you can see clearly.
Fire and wind stand for the restless passions that fog the mind with doubt. For the one who cannot see, the Guru's teaching lights the way, and the Naam shines clear.
A Question to Sit With
