He is inaccessible and unfathomable, infinite and unweighable. He cannot be measureed. ||10||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Great is the One, and great is the Naam.
Great is the Giver, and great is the place where all of it lives.
You cannot reach the edge of it, cannot fathom it, cannot weigh it; it is simply beyond every measure we have.
Some things are not meant to be measured, only marveled at.
Pure vastness: 'agam agochar bay-ant atolaa' (unreachable, unfathomable, endless, unweighable). Something this big can never shrink into a possession.
