Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Say the Name of the One softly in your heart — it is the sweetest taste there is.
Look inward, and you find that same sweet essence living right inside you.
Stay soaked in that love, day and night. This is the heart of all prayer, all stillness, all gentle self-shaping.
The sweetest thing there is already lives inside you.
Har ras — the sweet essence of the One — is tasted within. Remembrance imbued with love, day and night, is named the essence (saar) of all jap, tap, sanjam — all recitation, stillness, and self-discipline.
A Question to Sit With
What is the sweetest, most peaceful feeling you can find just by looking inward?
