The Sabad begins by expressing the sheer beauty and allure of the Beloved's love. The seeker, filled with excitement and conscious longing, focuses intently on the Beloved, highlighting a deep, unwavering devotion.

The Sabad begins by expressing the sheer beauty and allure of the Beloved's love. The seeker, filled with excitement and conscious longing, focuses intently on the Beloved, highlighting a deep, unwavering devotion. 

Guru Arjan Sahib further amplifies the spiritual ecstasy by cherishing the moments spent in divine contemplation. Every day, hour, minute, and instant becomes a blessing, a precious interval in the seeker's life. The imagery of suddenly opened shutters signifies an awakening, a moment when divine realization quenches the being's thirst, bringing the seeker to life through the vision of the Beloved.

About Sabad of the Week

We are finite; our understanding is finite. Our understanding was different yesterday and may evolve tomorrow as we deepen our relationship with the Sabad. In this trans-creation, we have chosen to keep the repeating words in the Sabad same. We aspire to learn and retain the Divine attribute used in the original Sabad and avoid terms like God or Lord.
