Dhanaasree
mehlaa 5.
Satgur
Ji speaks to us today. He says:
vaday vaday
raajan ar bhooman taa kee tarisan na boojhee.
I
have seen with my eyes, the greatest of the greatest raajan
means king are bhooman - means land owners. Satgur Ji
says greatest of the greatest kings and
the greatest of the greatest of the landowners taa kee tarisan na
boojhee - their tarisan-greed has not been put
out. boojhee means put out; fire and desire within has not
been put out by kingdoms or by lands.
lapat rahay
maa-i-aa rang maatay lochan kachhoo na soojhee. ||1||
They are lapat - totally
engrossed in maa-i-aa rang - in the color, in the pleasure
of maa-i-aa, in the illusion of this world.maatay - they are intoxicated in this. Satgur Paadshah Ji
says just as these intoxications block our senses and cause us to fall off the
path, in the same way this intoxication of maa-i-aa, this
worldly material gains and this attachment to selfishness blinds us as well.
Satgur Ji says lochan kachhoo na soojhee with theirlochan - eyes, kachoo na - it cannot,
they cannot soojhee see anything. Their eyes are blinded,
their conscience and soul are blinded by the illusion ofmaa-i-aa, illusion of the material world which is around.
They are blinded by the lands, the kingdoms, the money.
bikhi-aa meh kin hee taripat na paa-ee.
Guru
Sahib Ji says in bikhi-aa, in this poison world no one has
found taripat - it means true satisfaction. kin
hee means any one, na paa-ee means not found; No
one has found ever complete taripat, satisfaction, complete
to be at peace with.
ji-o paavak eeDhan
nahee Dharaapai bin har
kahaa aghaa-ee. rahaa-o.
Just
like a paavak - a flame, just like a fire cannot beDharaapai - cannot be put out by putting more fuel onto it.
Satguru Paadshah Ji is saying if you were to put more wood on fire, would that
put out the fire. No, that is not the way to of putting out; neither is the
fire satisfied, that is enough. The fire just keeps on burning, that is the
nature of the fire. bin har kahaa aghaa-ee, bin
har Without Hari, Waheguru, without the name of the God how come weaghaa-ee - put out this fire, we associate the appetite of the fire? The only way to put
the fire is with the name of the nectar, Amrit Naam. rahaa-o
We just pause and think about this.
din din karat bhojan baho binjan taa kee mitai na bhookhaa
Day
after day, din din karat, Satgur Ji says day in and day out;karat bhojan baho binjan - he eats meal after meal, sweet
meal after sweet meal, baho binjan; more and more sweets, he
keeps eating, keeps consuming and consuming. taa kee mitai na
bhookhaa If you eat day in and day out the best foods, Guru Ji says mitai
na bhookhaa your hunger still cannot be put out, you remain hungry.
Hunger won't be put out even just by eating amazing things.
udam
karai su-aan kee ni-aa-ee chaaray kuntaa ghokhaa.
||2||
Guru
Ji says like a su-aan, like a dog, ni-aa-ee
means like a ; he puts all his efforts in doing what, chaaray kuntaa
ghokhaa - looking ib four direction, kuntaa means
directions, chaaray means four and ghokhaa
means look for. He searches in all four direction to look for more materials,
more gains, more pleasures, more illusions, more <9>maa-iaa -
more money, more money, more land, more wealth more material gratification.
kaamvant kaamee baho naaree par garih joh na
chookai
Guru Ji says a
person who is full of kaamvant - lust, full of desires,
Satgur Ji says; kaamee baho naaree - he desires more,baho, women, more and more people of the opposite sex, a man
who desires a woman or the woman who desires a man. Satgur Ji says a lusty
person desires more and more of opposite sex to associate his or her lust. That
lust is never put out. In this line Guru JI is giving an example of a man who
is lust or desire , who could equally be applied to both. par garih
joh na chookai, joh - means to look; this disastrous, disgusting
habit of looking into par garih - into other houses for or
to associate his lust, more and more for his lowly gratification, he looks into
more and more houses and Guru Ji says that never stops.
din parat karai karai pachhutaapai
sog lobh meh sookai. ||3||
Day in day
out, din parat karai, again and again he engages in acts of
lust. karai pachhutaapai and then he regrets.
He does it and then regrets, he carries on but does not stop. sog lobh meh sookai Like this he withers away -sookai, sog - the cycle of pain andlobh - and greed; pain and greed, pain and greed following
each other; its like a dog chasing his tail again and again; round and round,
round and round repeatedly. Guru Ji says this is not the way to live. Now Guru
Ji gives us the answer to all these pains and doubts.
har har naam
apaar amolaa amrit ayk niDhaanaa.
The name of
Hari, Waheguru, har har naam apaar amolaa is beyond all
limits, apaar, is amolaa - is priceless,
beyond all comprehension of the mind, beyond any prices. amrit ayk niDhaanaa That
treasure of Waheguru Ji's name is the true amrit, is true
immortal nectar, that is the true treasure.
sookh sahj aanand santan kai naanak gur tay jaanaa. ||4||6||
The saints live their life insookh - in peace, sahj - poise, complete
balance, aanand and they have no duality. Where there is no
duality that is where true aanand is, where there is no love for true masters.
There has to be only true love for Waheguru and not for goods and material
pleasure. When they abide their life in that state of mind there isaanand and they are the true saints. naanak gur tay
jaana Satgur Ji says I have also been blessed to know this. This
poise and peace, this complete truth is only found through the grace of the
true Guru.
har har naam
apaar amolaa amrit ayk niDhaanaa.||
sookh sahj
aanand santan kai
naanak gur tay jaanaa||
Waheguru ji ka Khalsa ! Waheguru ji ki Fateh !
