Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Inside a heart turned toward the teaching there is a deep quiet, and both mind and body settle into the Name.
Such a person thinks of the Name, reads the Name, and stays lovingly wrapped up in it.
They have found a treasure that no one can take, and their worries simply drift away.
Meeting a true guide, the Name springs up fresh inside, and every hungry, thirsty, empty feeling is put to rest.
Soaked through with the Name, that is the only thing they gather, and it is enough.
When the Name fills you, worry drifts away and you feel you have enough.
This verse is the calm next to the restless verses around it. Gurmukh antar saat hai means inside the one turned toward the Guru, there is peace. Naamo chitvai naam parhai: they think of the Name, read the Name, and stay wrapped up in it.
The big promise is about feelings. Naam padaarath paa-i-aa chintaa ga-ee bilaa-ay: having found the treasure of the Name, worry melts away. Tisnaa bhukh sabh jaa-ay: the thirst and hunger of always wanting more is gone.
Think of finishing a good meal with people you love. You don't want anything else. For a child, this is a picture of enough: a fullness that doesn't need one more thing.
What does it feel like when you finally have "enough" and stop wanting more? Where does that contented feeling come from — outside you or inside you?
