The best wealth never runs low, no matter how much you give.
The Arc
Some people are rich in a way no bank can show. They trade in the Naam. You can team up with them. Earn that same wealth together, and keep turning the Guru's Word over in your mind like a stone you polish. The rules of this trade are simple. Drop the tricks. Let go of grudges. Look, and you will see the One right beside you. Deal only in what is true, and you never come out behind. And here is the best part. You can spend this wealth and share it every day, and it never runs low. It walks you home with honor. At the centre, the Rahao: those who trade in the Naam are rich, so become their partner and earn that wealth through the Guru's Word.
Key Vocabulary
dhanvant naam kay vanjaaray — dealers in the Name are wealthy.
saaNjhee karahu — become a partner; wealth shared, not hoarded.
The merchant metaphor that opened earlier in this run reaches its fullest form here, and the enmity-free heart echoes the earlier fearless-love shabad. Partnership makes the wealth communal — no one earns it alone.
For Raag Saarang
The thirst of Saarang is answered as abundance: a treasure that grows by giving, shared among partners, carrying each home with honor — a fitting close to the merchant-arc that ran through these shabads.
