ਪਰਪੰਚੁ ਛੋਡਿ ਸਹਜ ਘਰਿ ਬੈਸਹੁ ਝੂਠਾ ਕਹਹੁ ਨ ਕੋਈ ॥
parpanch chhod sahj ghar baishu jhoothaa kahhu na ko-ee.
Renounce your fraudulent plans, and dwell in the celestial palace; do not call anyone else false.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਮਿਲਹੁ ਨਵੈ ਨਿਧਿ ਪਾਵਹੁ ਇਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਤਤੁ ਬਿਲੋਈ ॥੨॥
satgur milhu navai niDh paavhu in biDh tat bilo-ee. ||2||
Meeting with the True Guru, you shall receive the nine treasures; in this way, you shall find the essence of reality. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Give up your tricks and schemes, and rest in the calm home inside you. Do not call anyone else a fake.
Meet the True Guru, and you will receive the nine treasures. This is how you churn life down to what is true.
Drop the schemes, stop labeling others, and rest in what is true.
Parpanch chhod — let go of deceit and scheming; sahj ghar is the home of natural ease (sahaj). Navai niDh, the nine treasures, and tat bilo-ee, churning down to the essence, promise lasting wealth. Tucked inside is an ethic: jhoothaa kahhu na ko-ee — do not call anyone else false.
A Question to Sit With
Is there a "scheme" or shortcut you rely on that you could set down?
