Chant And Meditate:
ਆਦਿ ਸਚੁ ਜੁਗਾਦਿ ਸਚੁ ॥
Aadh Sach Jugaadh Sach ||
आदि सचु जुगादि सचु ॥
True In The Primal Beginning. True Throughout The Ages.
ਹੈ ਭੀ ਸਚੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਹੋਸੀ ਭੀ ਸਚੁ ॥੧॥
Hai Bhee Sach Naanak Hosee Bhee Sach ||1||
है भी सचु नानक होसी भी सचु ॥१॥
True Here And Now. O Nanak, Forever And Ever True. ||1||
ਸੋਚੈ ਸੋਚਿ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਜੇ ਸੋਚੀ ਲਖ ਵਾਰ ॥
Sochai Soch N Hovee Jae Sochee Lakh Vaar ||
सोचै सोचि न होवई जे सोची लख वार ॥
By thinking, He cannot be reduced to thought, even by thinking hundreds of thousands of times.
ਚੁਪੈ ਚੁਪ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਜੇ ਲਾਇ ਰਹਾ ਲਿਵ ਤਾਰ ॥
Chupai Chup N Hovee Jae Laae Rehaa Liv Thaar ||
चुपै चुप न होवई जे लाइ रहा लिव तार ॥
By remaining silent, inner silence is not obtained, even by remaining lovingly absorbed deep within.
ਭੁਖਿਆ ਭੁਖ ਨ ਉਤਰੀ ਜੇ ਬੰਨਾ ਪੁਰੀਆ ਭਾਰ ॥
Bhukhiaa Bhukh N Outharee Jae Bannaa Pureeaa Bhaar ||
भुखिआ भुख न उतरी जे बंना पुरीआ भार ॥
The hunger of the hungry is not appeased, even by piling up loads of worldly goods.
ਸਹਸ ਸਿਆਣਪਾ ਲਖ ਹੋਹਿ ਤ ਇਕ ਨ ਚਲੈ ਨਾਲਿ ॥
Sehas Siaanapaa Lakh Hohi Th Eik N Chalai Naal ||
सहस सिआणपा लख होहि त इक न चलै नालि ॥
Hundreds of thousands of clever tricks, but not even one of them will go along with you in the end.
ਕਿਵ ਸਚਿਆਰਾ ਹੋਈਐ ਕਿਵ ਕੂੜੈ ਤੁਟੈ ਪਾਲਿ ॥
Kiv Sachiaaraa Hoeeai Kiv Koorrai Thuttai Paal ||
किव सचिआरा होईऐ किव कूड़ै तुटै पालि ॥
So how can you become truthful? And how can the veil of illusion be torn away?
ਹੁਕਮਿ ਰਜਾਈ ਚਲਣਾ ਨਾਨਕ ਲਿਖਿਆ ਨਾਲਿ ॥੧॥
Hukam Rajaaee Chalanaa Naanak Likhiaa Naal ||1||
हुकमि रजाई चलणा नानक लिखिआ नालि ॥१॥
O Nanak, it is written that you shall obey the Hukam of His Command, and walk in the Way of His Will. ||1||
ਹੁਕਮੀ ਹੋਵਨਿ ਆਕਾਰ ਹੁਕਮੁ ਨ ਕਹਿਆ ਜਾਈ ॥
Hukamee Hovan Aakaar Hukam N Kehiaa Jaaee ||
हुकमी होवनि आकार हुकमु न कहिआ जाई ॥
By His Command, bodies are created; His Command cannot be described.
ਹੁਕਮੀ ਹੋਵਨਿ ਜੀਅ ਹੁਕਮਿ ਮਿਲੈ ਵਡਿਆਈ ॥
Hukamee Hovan Jeea Hukam Milai Vaddiaaee ||
हुकमी होवनि जीअ हुकमि मिलै वडिआई ॥
By His Command, souls come into being; by His Command, glory and greatness are obtained.
