ਓਹੁ ਨਿਰਮਲੁ ਹੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਅੰਧਿਆਰਾ ॥
oh nirmal hai naahee anDhi-aaraa.
He is immaculate, and has no darkness.
ਓਹੁ ਆਪੇ ਤਖਤਿ ਬਹੈ ਸਚਿਆਰਾ ॥
oh aapay takhat bahai sachi-aaraa.
The True Lord Himself sits upon His throne.
ਸਾਕਤ ਕੂੜੇ ਬੰਧਿ ਭਵਾਈਅਹਿ ਮਰਿ ਜਨਮਹਿ ਆਈ ਜਾਈ ਹੇ ॥੧੪॥
saakat koorhay banDh bhavaa-ee-ah mar janmeh aa-ee jaa-ee hay. ||14||
The faithless cynics are bound and gagged, and forced to wander in reincarnation. They die, and are reborn, and continue coming and going. ||14||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One is spotless, with no darkness anywhere.
The true One sits, steady and bright, at the very center of everything.
When I am bound by what is false, I am made to wander in circles, dying and born again, coming and going.
The One is spotless light; what is false only goes in circles.
The One is pure light without shadow. The saakat, bound by falsehood, keeps going round in circles of coming and going, dying and being born.
A Question to Sit With
What is a worry that keeps going in circles in your mind, and what helps it stop?
