Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
My small understanding is nothing to speak of. Yet so many ordinary people have already crossed over.
Those who truly hear and see the teaching don't fall back into forgetting and separation.
If so many ordinary, stumbling people found their way, you can too.
Mai moorakh kee kaytak baat hai — what is one foolish person like me? Kot paraadhee tari-aa ray — millions who had gone wrong have already crossed over. Think of a hard climb at camp. When you see a hundred kids who were scared too make it to the top, you think, "Maybe I can do this."
Gur naanak jin suni-aa paykhi-aa — those who have heard and seen Guru Nanak. The verse says they do not go back into garbhaas, the womb, meaning being born again and again. They no longer slip back into forgetting the One and feeling apart.
The note here is belonging. The door is open for everyone.
When you feel like you're not good enough at something, who reminds you that you can still do it?
