jah har simran bha-i-aa tah upaaDh gat keenee vadbhaagee har japnaa ||
jah
wherever, har simran worship of the Lord, bha-i-aa
means where that occurs, wherever the meditation upon the
Lord occurs; tah from that place; upaaDh
means all disasters; gat keenee means are liberated
literally. So all disasters, all bad karma are liberated from that place where
Simran happens. The vibration of that place where Simran happens is such that
it affects the atmosphere there. Vibration of the Naam, the Naad of the naam,
the sound current of the Naam wipes away all paap of that
surrounding. vadbhaagee only those who are fortunate;japnaa means to meditate, har Lord; only
those have great fortune who meditate upon the name of the Lord. O Waheguru, I am vaari-aa
sacrifice to you, tuDh, sad
hee forever and forever. tayray naam vitahu bal jaa-ee, bal jaa-ee
I am a sacrifice to your naam, to your name.rahaa-o Pause and think about this.
jan naanak ka-o gur ih mat deenee jap har bhavjal tarnaa. ||2||6||12||
In
the last line Guru Raam Das Ji says, jan means servant;ka-o - to; To servant Nanak gur ih mat, ih
- this; mat the spiritual understanding, knowledge,
spiritual wisdom; deenee means blessed; The Guru has blessed
the servant Nanak with this understanding of spiritual knowledge ofjap har meditating upon Hari, the Lord who sustains this
world; bhavjal - split into two- bhav and jal
means ocean of fear which is what this
world is called in Gurbani; tarnaa - to swim across. If you
meditate upon the Satnaam Guru Ji is saying we will cross this terrifying,
fear-filled ocean. Because as it says in Guru Granth Sahib Ji, nirbhau
japai sagal bhau mitai, which means repeating the name of the one who
is beyond fear we become fearless. Repeating the true name we find the truth
within ourselves. That is what Guru Raam Das Ji is saying to us today. O my
mind, do not wonder from place to place, O my mind repeat the name of Satnaam,
the true name again and again, many times and if you truly repeat the Satnam
yourself, you will feel the feeling of being carefree, the feeling which
Dhanaasaree Raag carries. It is a great blessing from Guru Raam Das Ji that we
received today and may He bless us that we don't forget that Satnaam, the true
name, and may we repeat it again and again.
jap man sat naam sadaa sat naam ||

Waheguru ji ka Khalsa ! Waheguru ji ki Fateh !
