Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The perfect teacher wiped away the dark fog of confusion — so love the One, stay close, because the One is right here, near at hand.
Drink in the sweetness of the Name like water, and heart and body are filled and content. The One is everywhere at once — so where would it ever have to come from, and where would it go?
The Pause — bhaj praym bhagat prabh nayraa — insists the One is nayraa, near, not far off to be fetched. The verse ends with a quiet riddle: kat aavai kat jaa-ee — if the One fills every place already, coming and going make no sense. There is nowhere it is not. Aghaa-ee, satisfied, is what a heart tastes when it stops searching outside for what is already within.
What would change if you believed the thing you are looking for is not far away at all?
