ਚੂਕਾ ਭਾਰਾ ਕਰਮ ਕਾ ਹੋਏ ਨਿਹਕਰਮਾ ॥
chookaa bhaaraa karam kaa ho-ay nihkarmaa.
The load of my karma has been removed, and I am now free of karma.
ਸਾਗਰ ਤੇ ਕੰਢੈ ਚੜੇ ਗੁਰਿ ਕੀਨੇ ਧਰਮਾ ॥੩॥
saagar tay kandhai charhay gur keenay Dharmaa. ||3||
I have crossed the world-ocean, and reached the other shore; the Guru has blessed me with this Dharma. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The heavy load I was carrying has been set down, and I feel light.
I have crossed the wide, rough water and reached the safe shore. The Guru gave me this good path.
A heavy load, once set down, leaves you feeling light.
The "load of karma" set down and the world-ocean crossed: the felt sense of a burden lifted and safe ground finally reached.
A Question to Sit With
