Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who have realized the Truth are at peace throughout the four ages.
Subduing their egotism and desires, they keep the True Name enshrined in their hearts.
In this world, the only real profit is the Name of the One Lord. It is earned by contemplating the Guru.
Peace across the four ages (chauhukar sukh) — not temporary peace in this moment or this era. The peace that has realized Truth is age-spanning, stable across all the variations of circumstance.
The ikko Naavn (Name of the One Lord) as the only real profit (laahaa) in the world: everything else that passes for profit — wealth, status, relationships, experiences — is not real profit in the ultimate accounting. The Name is the only thing that survives the accounting.
If you did an honest profit-and-loss statement on how you've been investing your life-energy — what has been genuine profit and what has been loss?
