Sikhism·Raag Raamkalee·Shabad 93
Verse 7 of 22

Made Clean by One Love

ਪਵਿਤ ਪਾਵਨ ਸੇ ਜਨ ਸਾਚੇ ਏਕ ਸਬਦਿ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਈ ॥੬॥
pavit paavan say jan saachay ayk sabad liv laa-ee. ||6||
Sanctified and pure are those true beings, who enshrine love for the Shabad. ||6||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

Holy and pure are those true people

who pour their love into the one Word.

One love, held steadily, quietly cleans the whole heart.
The deeper layer

Pavit paavan — sanctified and pure. What makes them so is ayk sabad liv laa-ee: love fixed on the one Word. Purity here comes naturally when your love has a single, steady center, with no need to scrub yourself with rules.

A Question to Sit With

What is one thing you love steadily, no matter what?
