ਜੋ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਖੋਜਹਿ ਸੇਈ ਪਾਵਹਿ ਹੋਰਿ ਫੂਟਿ ਮੂਏ ਅਹੰਕਾਰੀ ॥੨੦॥
jo parabh khojeh say-ee paavahi hor foot moo-ay ahaNkaaree. ||20||
Those who seek God, find Him; others burst and die from their own egotism. ||20||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who look for the One find the One.
Others, puffed up with pride, burst like a balloon blown too big, and their life is lost.
Seeking finds the One; pride swells until it bursts.
Jo prabh khojeh sayee paavahi — the seekers find. Hor foot mooay ahankaaree — the others burst and die of their own pride. Ahankaar (pride) defeats itself; it swells until it cannot hold. The finding belongs to those who seek.
A Question to Sit With
What have you found simply because you kept honestly looking for it?
