Raag Ramkali – Pauri No. 18

The Radiance of His Jote is so dazzling that no ordinary mortal can bear His Brilliance.

With Gur Parsad, the Sikh is transformed to be His Very Image (“Dass Aninn Mero Nij Roop” – Ang 1252).

Once you are His Nij Roop, you are actually exalted to become Him. As He gives Darshan of His Jote, it is actually Himself receiving the Bright Dazzling Brilliance (Tej) of His Jote. This is,

“Maan Mehta Tej Apna Aap Jarr”

The translation of this line on the Internet is rather muted, and does not give the True Meaning.

These two Shabads are usually sung by the Ragis at the conclusion of any Kirtan Chaunki.
Sometimes, they choose to read the final Slok of Japji Sahib.

The greatest of the great, infinite is Your dignity.

ਰੰਗ ਪਰੰਗ ਅਨੇਕ ਨ ਜਾਪਨਿ੍ਹ ਕਰਤਬਾ ॥
Your colors and hues are so numerous; no one can know Your actions.

ਜੀਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਜੀਉ ਸਭੁ ਕਿਛੁ ਜਾਣਲਾ ॥
You are the Soul within all souls; You alone know everything.

ਸਭੁ ਕਿਛੁ ਤੇਰੈ ਵਸਿ ਤੇਰਾ ਘਰੁ ਭਲਾ ॥
Everything is under Your control; Your home is beautiful.

ਤੇਰੈ ਘਰਿ ਆਨੰਦੁ ਵਧਾਈ ਤੁਧੁ ਘਰਿ ॥
Your home is filled with bliss, which resonates and resounds throughout Your home.

ਮਾਣੁ ਮਹਤਾ ਤੇਜੁ ਆਪਣਾ ਆਪਿ ਜਰਿ ॥
Your honor, majesty and glory are Yours alone.

ਸਰਬ ਕਲਾ ਭਰਪੂਰੁ ਦਿਸੈ ਜਤ ਕਤਾ ॥
You are overflowing with all powers; wherever we look, there You are.

ਨਾਨਕ ਦਾਸਨਿ ਦਾਸੁ ਤੁਧੁ ਆਗੈ ਬਿਨਵਤਾ ॥੧੮॥
Nanak, the slave of Your slaves, prays to You alone. ||18||

Guru Arjan Dev Ji in Raag Raamkalee – 965

ਸਜਣੁ ਸਚਾ ਪਾਤਿਸਾਹੁ ਸਿਰਿ ਸਾਹਾਂ ਦੈ ਸਾਹੁ ॥
My Friend is the True Supreme King, the King over the heads of kings.

ਜਿਸੁ ਪਾਸਿ ਬਹਿਠਿਆ ਸੋਹੀਐ ਸਭਨਾਂ ਦਾ ਵੇਸਾਹੁ ॥੨੨॥
Sitting by His side, we are exalted and beautified; He is the Support of all. ||22||
