Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Name of the One you love is sweet as nectar; drink it in and your heart rests satisfied.
That timeless, deathless One is found in the Sangat, the gathering of holy people. It is the finest place to settle your attention.
The Naam is sweet enough to satisfy you, and the timeless One is found in the Sangat.
Amrit naam means the Name that is like nectar. Drink it in, and the thirst inside finally rests.
The One is called akaal moorat, the timeless, deathless form. These same words appear in the very first verse of the Guru Granth Sahib. Where do we meet that timeless One? In the saadh santan kee thaahar, the gathering place of the holy: the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One. That is a lovely place to rest your dhyaan, your quiet attention. Think of a library where everyone is reading calmly. Just sitting there makes it easier to focus.
Where do you feel most calm and settled — and who is usually there with you?
