Duur nahi mero Prabh Pyara – Raag Sarangh – Ang 1198

Raag Sarangh – M1

SGGS Ji Ang 1197/1198

A Sikh says I know my Beloved Lord is nearby.
“Duur nahi mero Prabh Pyara.”

My mind is pleased with Gurbani, and it is through Gurbani that I have found the Lord, the Support of my life.
“Satgur Bachan mero mann maaniya Har paaye pran adhara.”

The Guru reminds the Sikh. That is not enough. You meet your Husband Lord if He blesses you with His Love.
“Ein bidh Har miliye Var kaaman dhan Suhaag pyari.”

You must reflect upon Bani and remove all social class, status, race, ancestry, and restlessness of the mind.
“Jaat baran kul sahsa chuka gurmat Shabad Vichari.”

If as you say your mind is pleased with the Guru’s Teachings then you should have no more ego, pride, violent nature or greed.
“Jis mann maane abhimaan ne ta ko hinsa lobh vissare.”

The gurmukh jeev isteri enjoys the bliss of Loving Union with her Husband Lord.
“Sahaj ravhe Var kaaman Pir ki gurmukh rang saware.”

In the following padas, Guru Ji stresses the journey is internal and the word “antar” is used three times.
