Sadho eh jag bharam bhulanaa – Raag Dhanaasree – Ang 684

SGGS Ji Angg 684.

Raag Dhanaasree M.9

Guru Tegh Bahdur Ji tells us about the world. It is deluded and full of misconceptions. Instead of remembering the Lord, the world has sold itself to maya.

“Sadho eh jag bharam bhulanaa; Ram Naam ka simran chodeyaa maya haath bikanaa.” (rahao).

Mother, father, siblings, children and spouse – the world is entangled in their love; in the pride of youth, wealth and glory, man remains intoxicated, night and day.

“Maat pita bhai sut banitaa ta ke rass laptanaa;
Joban dhan prabta ke madh me ahiniss rahe diwanaa.”

Man fails to center his mind on the Eternally Merciful Lord, Friend of the lowly, and the Destroyer of pain.

“Deen Dyaal sada Dukh Bhanjan ta seyo mann na laptanaa.”

Servant Nanak says, out of millions, a rare gurmukh, recognizes the Lord.

“Jan Nanak kottan me kinhu gurmukh hoye pechanaa.”
