Sabad of the Week

Guru Granth Sahib

This composition by Guru Arjan Sahib is in Rag Asa, a musical mode used to evoke a mood of hope, expectation, inspiration, and courage. Guru Arjan Sahib asks, “Where does one go to experience the ultimate comfort?”

That Husband-Beloved’s Love. 1. Reflect.
Gold, jewels, elephant-size pearls, rubies—no, nope, none. 1.

No empire, opulence, power, or indulgence;
Craved not even a tiny bit. 2.

In True Congregation’s humble sanctuary and devotion
The comfort of comfort is obtained.

Nanak: Burning vanishes upon
Experiencing Husband-Beloved’s Love. 3.

Why did most of the Gurus establish new cities?

The vision was far more about action. Guru Nanak saw that while many kings, sovereigns, and emperors spoke of equality, respect and dignity, their policies didn’t reflect those principles.
