Wadahans, Fifth Mehl:
ਸਾਧਸੰਗਿ ਹਰਿ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਪੀਜੈ ॥
saaDhsang har amrit peejai.
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, drink in the Ambrosial Nectar of the Lord.
ਨਾ ਜੀਉ ਮਰੈ ਨ ਕਬਹੂ ਛੀਜੈ ॥੧॥
naa jee-o marai na kabhoo chheejai. ||1||
The soul does not die, nor does it ever waste away. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
In good company, drink in the sweetness of the One.
Something in you — your truest self — never dies and never wastes away.
In good company you taste something sweet — and touch the part of you that stays bright and never fades.
"In the Saadh Sangat, drink the Ambrosial Nectar... the soul does not die, nor waste away." The company of the good is where the sweetness is tasted, and there one touches the deathless part of oneself — the true self that doesn't fade. For a child, handled gently: there's a part of you, your truest goodness, that stays bright and doesn't waste away.
A Question to Sit With
What part of you feels most truly, lastingly 'you'?
