Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one who serves the One by the Guru's way finds deep peace and carries whole families along.
The wealth of the Name quiets every thirst, and the heart fills with steady bliss, with the One as its constant companion.
Such a heart looks the same upon friend and stranger, and wishes well to every single person.
A heart at peace wishes well to everyone, friend or stranger.
One of the Vaar's summits: the one at home in the One 'looks alike upon enemy and friend, and wishes well to all.' This is the nirvair heart — no enemy, because it holds no ill will toward anyone. It is the practical shape of Ik Onkar.
A Question to Sit With
Is there someone it is hard for you to wish well? What would it take?
