The Fathomless Master Who Comforts

ਸਚਾ ਸਾਹਿਬੁ ਗਹਿਰ ਗੰਭੀਰਾ ॥
sachaa saahib gahir gambheeraa.
The True Lord and Master is profoundly deep and unfathomable.
ਸਦਾ ਸਲਾਹੀ ਤਾ ਮਨੁ ਧੀਰਾ ॥
sadaa salaahee taa man Dheeraa.
Praising Him forever, the mind is comforted and consoled.
ਅਗਮ ਅਗੋਚਰੁ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਨਹੀ ਪਾਈ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਮੰਨਿ ਵਸਾਇਦਾ ॥੧੫॥
agam agochar keemat nahee paa-ee gurmukh man vasaa-idaa. ||15||
He is inaccessible and unfathomable; His value cannot be estimated. He dwells in the mind of the Gurmukh. ||15||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

The True One is deeper than the deepest sea, more than can ever be measured.

Yet singing its praises comforts and settles the mind, and it makes its home in the heart that turns toward it.

The deepest, most unmeasurable One still makes a home in a turning heart.
The deeper layer

The fathomless Master brings comfort through praise. The immeasurable One dwells in the turning heart, so transcendence and intimacy meet.

A Question to Sit With

What is something both very big and very close to you at once?
