Guru Arjan Sahib in Rag Gauri | Guru Granth Sahib 199 | Artist: Bhai Nirmal Singh ji

If the bearded-powerful persecute the poor, the Transcendent has them burning in their own fire-rage. 1. Creator administers complete justice, Is fully capable of protecting Own’s votaries. 1. Reflect. Glory-heat manifests since the beginning and throughout the ages. Slanderer dies in the high heat-turmoil being produced. 2. No one can protect those being destroyed. Their reputation is spoilt here and hereafter. 3. Own’s servants are bosom-embraced and protected. Nanak: Remain in sanctuary and contemplate on All-Pervasive’s Nam1. 1.

This is our understanding at the moment, which 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 as used in the original Sabad and avoid terms like God or Lord.
