TODAY'S HUKAMNAMA FROM SRI DARBAR SAHIB, Sri Amritsar
January 16, 2017 in English
AASAA, FIFTH MEHL, SHALOK:
Make the effort, O very fortunate ones, and meditate on the
Lord, the Lord King. O Nanak, remembering Him in meditation, you shall obtain
total peace, and your pains and troubles and doubts shall depart. || 1 ||
CHHANT: Chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord of the Universe; don’t be lazy.
Meeting with the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, you shall not have to
go to the City of Death. Pain, trouble and fear will not afflict you;
meditating on the Naam, a lasting peace is found. With each and every breath,
worship the Lord in adoration; meditate on the Lord God in your mind and with
your mouth. O kind and compassionate Lord, O treasure of sublime essence,
treasure of excellence, please link me to Your service. Prays Nanak: may I
meditate on the Lord’s lotus feet, and not be lazy in chanting the Naam, the
Name of the Lord of the Universe. || 1 || The Purifier of sinners is the Naam,
the Pure Name of the Immaculate Lord. The darkness of doubt is removed by the
healing ointment of the Guru’s spiritual wisdom. By the healing ointment of the
Guru’s spiritual wisdom, one meets the Immaculate Lord God, who is totally
pervading the water, the land and the sky. If He dwells within the heart, for
even an instant, sorrows are forgotten. The wisdom of the all-powerful Lord and
Master is incomprehensible; He is the Destroyer of the fears of all. Prays
Nanak, I meditate on the Lord’s lotus feet. The Purifier of sinners is the
Naam, the Pure Name of the Immaculate Lord. || 2 || I have grasped the
protection of the merciful Lord, the Sustainer of the Universe, the treasure of
grace. I take the support of Your lotus feet, and in the protection of Your
Sanctuary, I attain perfection. The Lord’s lotus feet are the cause of causes;
the Lord Master saves even the sinners. So many are saved; they cross over the
terrifying world-ocean, contemplating the Naam, the Name of the Lord. In the
beginning and in the end, countless are those who seek the Lord. I have heard
that the Society of the Saints is the way to salvation. Prays Nanak, I meditate
on the Lord’s lotus feet, and grasp the protection of the Lord of the Universe,
the merciful, the ocean of kindness. || 3 || The Lord is the Lover of His
devotees; this is His natural way. Wherever the Saints worship the Lord in
adoration, there He is revealed. God blends Himself with His devotees in His
natural way, and resolves their affairs. In the ecstasy of the Lord’s Praises,
they obtain supreme joy, and forget all their sorrows. The brilliant flash of
the One Lord is revealed to them — they behold Him in the ten directions. Prays
Nanak, I meditate on the Lord’s lotus feet; the Lord is the Lover of His
devotees; this is His natural way. || 4 || 3 || 6 ||
