ਭਰਮਿ ਨ ਭੂਲਹੁ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਸੇਵਹੁ ਮਨੁ ਰਾਖਹੁ ਇਕ ਠਾਈ ॥੮॥
bharam na bhoolahu satgur sayvhu man raakho ik thaa-ee. ||8||
Do not be deluded by doubt; serve the True Guru, and keep your mind steady in one place. ||8||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Don't let doubt fool you and spin you in circles. Serve the True Guru.
Keep your mind steady, resting in one place.
A mind that rests in one place is a mind at peace.
Bharam na bhoolahu — do not be led astray by bharam, the doubt that scatters. Serving the True Guru and keeping the mind ik thaa-ee (in one place) is the cure for a mind pulled in every direction.
A Question to Sit With
