ਗੁਰ ਕੀ ਬਾਣੀ ਗੁਰ ਤੇ ਜਾਤੀ ਜਿ ਸਬਦਿ ਰਤੇ ਰੰਗੁ ਲਾਇ ॥
gur kee banee gur tay jaatee je sabad ratay rang laa-ay.
Those who are attuned to the love of the Shabad know the Guru, through the Word of the Guru's Bani.
ਪਵਿਤੁ ਪਾਵਨ ਸੇ ਜਨ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਹਰਿ ਕੈ ਨਾਮਿ ਸਮਾਇ ॥੮॥
pavit paavan say jan nirmal har kai naam samaa-ay. ||8||
Sacred, pure and immaculate are those humble beings who are absorbed in the Name of the Lord. ||8||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who are dyed in love of the Shabad come to know the Guru through the Guru's own words.
Holy, pure and spotless are those people who melt into the Naam of the One.
Words that move you make you clean and new.
You come to know the Guru through the Guru's own words, and melting into the Naam leaves you clean.
Gur kee banee: the Guru's word. Pavit, paavan, nirmal: holy, pure, spotless. Melting into the Naam is like a drop melting into the sea.
A Question to Sit With
Have you ever felt lighter or cleaner after listening closely to something wise?
