ਰਾਮਕਲੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੪ ॥
raamkalee mehlaa 4.
Raamkalee, Fourth Mehl:
ਰਾਮ ਜਨਾ ਮਿਲਿ ਭਇਆ ਅਨੰਦਾ ਹਰਿ ਨੀਕੀ ਕਥਾ ਸੁਨਾਇ ॥
raam janaa mil bha-i-aa anandaa har neekee kathaa sunaa-ay.
Meeting with the humble servants of the Lord, I am in ecstasy; they preach the sublime sermon of the Lord.
ਦੁਰਮਤਿ ਮੈਲੁ ਗਈ ਸਭ ਨੀਕਲਿ ਸਤਸੰਗਤਿ ਮਿਲਿ ਬੁਧਿ ਪਾਇ ॥੧॥
durmat mail ga-ee sabh neekal satsangat mil buDh paa-ay. ||1||
The filth of evil-mindedness is totally washed away; joining the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, one is blessed with understanding. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Meeting the humble servants of the One, joy bubbles up in me; they tell the beautiful story of the One.
The grime of a mind bent the wrong way washes right off, like dirt rinsing away in clean water.
Joining the Sangat, a person gains understanding.
The right company rinses your mind clean and clears your sight.
Satsangat is the Sangat, people gathered together to remember the One. Durmat is a mind bent the wrong way, and mail is the grime that gathers on it. The Sangat works like a bath for the mind: you don’t scrub yourself clean, you simply step into water that does it for you.
A Question to Sit With
