Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
At the very last moment, nothing goes along with you. Everything you see is here by the One's kindness.
The One is the first, the endless Master. Keep the Naam of the One in your heart, and you cross over.
Nothing we own goes with us at the end; the Naam kept in the heart carries us across.
Ant kaal is the final moment of a life. Kichh saath na chaalai — nothing goes along. You can leave a birthday party with a happy heart, but you cannot take the house with you. Everything we see is here by the One's ma-i-aa, kindness. Aad purakh aprampar means the first Being, without any end. Har naam ridai lai paar pa-i-aa — keeping the Naam in the heart, a person crosses over, like a boat carrying someone across a wide river.
If only one thing could go with you, what would you want it to be?
