Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The whole world spins inside three restless pulls — grabbing, resting, and glowing — like weather that never quite settles.
The teaching shows a way to stand steady in the middle of all that weather.
Hold onto the Name and the spinning loosens its grip — ask anyone who has found real calm.
Tarai gun — the “three qualities” — is the old Indian map of nature's three pulls: restless action, heavy inertia, and bright goodness. Even goodness is still a pull that keeps the mind in motion, so the teaching points past all three to a still center (unfolded in the next pauri). It's treated here respectfully as shared wisdom, glossed for a child as three kinds of inner weather.
What helps you feel steady when your moods keep pulling you back and forth?
