Verse 8 of 16

The One Living Quietly Inside Everything

ਸਭਨਾ ਵਿਚਿ ਵਰਤੈ ਇਕੁ ਸੋਈ ॥
sabhnaa vich vartai ik so-ee.
The One Lord is contained within all.
ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਪਰਗਟੁ ਹੋਈ ॥
gur parsaadee pargat ho-ee.
By Guru's Grace, He is revealed.
ਹਉਮੈ ਮਾਰਿ ਸਦਾ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਇਆ ਨਾਇ ਸਾਚੈ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਪੀਜੈ ਹੇ ॥੮॥
ha-umai maar sadaa sukh paa-i-aa naa-ay saachai amrit peejai hay. ||8||
One who subdues his ego, finds lasting peace; he drinks in the Ambrosial Nectar of the True Name. ||8||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

The one One lives inside every single thing.

By the Guru's grace, it shows itself.

Quiet the proud me, and a lasting peace arrives, sweet as nectar, the taste of the True Name.

Quiet the me, and you taste the One that was inside all along.
The deeper layer

Immanence and grace together: the One is inside everything and shows itself when grace touches us. Quieting haumai brings the nectar-peace of the True Name.

A Question to Sit With

Where do you notice the same wonderful something inside many different things?
