Soohee, Fifth Mehl:
ਬੈਕੁੰਠ ਨਗਰੁ ਜਹਾ ਸੰਤ ਵਾਸਾ ॥
baikunth nagar jahaa sant vaasaa.
The city of heaven is where the Saints dwell.
ਪ੍ਰਭ ਚਰਣ ਕਮਲ ਰਿਦ ਮਾਹਿ ਨਿਵਾਸਾ ॥੧॥
parabh charan kamal rid maahi nivaasaa. ||1||
They enshrine the Lotus Feet of God within their hearts. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Heaven is not only some faraway place — it is wherever good, loving people gather.
They carry the One in their hearts, and that is what makes the ground beneath them feel like home.
Heaven can be a place you make together, right here.
baikunth nagar jahaa sant vaasaa — baikunth (heaven) is where the sant (good) dwell. parabh charan kamal rid maahi nivaasaa — the One enshrined in the rid (heart). Heaven relocated from the sky to the company of the good.
A Question to Sit With
Where is a place that feels like heaven to you because of the people there?
