majeeth sachrhaa-o = the true, fast color of madder root — Gurbani's picture of sach versus koorh. ultee sakat sivai ghar aa-ee = the energy that ran outward toward Maya turns and comes home. birakh kee chhaa-o = the tree's shade that will not stay put, an image for the impermanence of the false.
What is something that seemed super important last year that you barely think about now?
