ਜਿਨਿ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਜਾਤਾ ਤਿਨਿ ਏਕੁ ਪਛਾਤਾ ॥
jin satgur jaataa tin ayk pachhaataa.
Those who know the True Guru realize the One Lord.
ਸਰਬੇ ਰਵਿ ਰਹਿਆ ਸੁਖਦਾਤਾ ॥
sarbay rav rahi-aa sukh-daata.
The Giver of peace is all-pervading, permeating everywhere.
ਆਤਮੁ ਚੀਨਿ ਪਰਮ ਪਦੁ ਪਾਇਆ ਸੇਵਾ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਸਮਾਈ ਹੇ ॥੧੫॥
aatam cheen param pad paa-i-aa sayvaa surat samaa-ee hay. ||15||
Understanding my own soul, I have obtained the Supreme Status; my awareness is immersed in selfless service. ||15||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who know the True Guru recognize the One. The Giver of peace is woven through everything.
Knowing my own soul, I have reached the highest place. My attention rests in service.
Knowing your own soul and knowing the One turn out to be the same discovery.
sarbay rav rahiaa — the Giver of peace pervades everywhere. aatam cheen (knowing one's own soul) leads to param pad (the supreme state). Self-knowledge and knowing the One turn out to be one movement, ending in awareness absorbed in selfless service.
