Sikhism·Raag Raamkalee·Shabad 92
Verse 6 of 28

Ever-Present, Never Far

ਸਦਾ ਹਜੂਰਿ ਦੂਰਿ ਨਹ ਦੇਖਹੁ ਰਚਨਾ ਜਿਨਿ ਰਚਾਈ ॥੫॥
sadaa hajoor door nah daykhhu rachnaa jin rachaa-ee. ||5||
He is ever-present; don't think that He is far away. He created the creation. ||5||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

The One is always here, right with you. Don't think of the One as far away.

The One made everything you see.

The One you're looking for is never far away.
The deeper layer

Sadaa hajoor, door nah dekhhu — ever-present; do not look for the One as distant. A clear statement of immanence: the same One who rachnaa jin rachaa-ee (fashioned all creation) is nearer than any far-off heaven.

A Question to Sit With

Where do you feel closest to something bigger than yourself?
