Keep the One Name close, and every season of your life turns beautiful.
The Arc
Look at an ordinary day. You eat, you drink, you laugh, you sleep. All of it is good. In the middle of it, it is easy to forget that life here does not last. Forget the One who gives it all, and the days slip by empty. So remember the Naam of the One, and you go home with honor. Anything you could offer the One was given to you first. The One is the life inside every life. Remember the Naam day and night, and whatever clouds you is washed clean. Every season has its own weather. The season with the Naam is the beautiful one. At the centre, the Rahao: remember the One Naam, and you go home with honor.
