Yug Yug Satgur Dhare Avtari

Antar Guru Aradhna Jihva Jap Gur Naun
Netri Satgur Pekhna Servni Sunana Gurnaun
Satgur Seti Ratia Dargeh Paaiai Thhaon
With contemplation on the Guru in the heart, with the tongue repeating the Name of the Guru, with the eyes beholding the True Guru, with the ears hearing the Name of the Guru, thus totally saturated with the Love of the True Guru, one attains place of honour in the Lord's Mansion (Sach Khand).

A Gursikh therefore utilizes all his senses, all his faculties as God-given instruments for the sake of the Divine and for the attainment of the Divine.

The holy hymn reflects and reveals total harmony of internal and external faculties in Guru worship culminating in perpetual Guru consciousness. Soul, mind and body in their totality are dedicated to the love and worship of Satguru. Every part and faculty of this physical body is utilized and dedicated to the service and worship of the Satguru. Such is the wonderful state of mind and body of a love-smitten sikh.

Satguru Seti Ratia Dargeh Paaiai Thhaon - Unless one sails in Guru consciousness, unless one is totally possessed by Guru consciousness, unless a sikh's love and his own separate individuality has totally melted into the lotus feet of the Satguru, he cannot claim to have grasped the essence of this holy hymn.

All faculties, external and internal, physical, mental and spiritual should be directed towards attaining uninterrupted Guru consciousness. A combination of external and internal worship is necessary to achieve this blissful goal.

The essential spirit and theme of this sublime hymn is the attainment of continuous Guru consciousness.

Constant Guru consciousness is the prime pre-requisite to find a place of honour at His Lotus Feet in Sach Khand.

This is a wonderful blessed state in which one is totally possessed by Guru consciousness. This blessed state is constant, remains unbroken by the Grace of Satguru. Self-surrender and prema-bhakti in this state is complete in which a Sikh remains in an ecstatic grip and possession of Satguru.

Soul and body in their totality are dedicated to the Lord through love and service. The Lord permeates both soul and body. He permeates each and every pore of the body. Every pore of the body, every function and activity of such a true sikh is self speaking and radiates out the pure love of the Satguru.

As a true sikh yearns and thirsts for continuously drinking the Nectar of Satguru's love through these precious senses, i.e. eyes, ears and tongue, he remains in perpetual gratitude to the Lord for granting him a human birth with these senses of perception. Pure and blessed are the eyes that never get tired of envisioning the Lord Guru Nanak, pure and blessed are the ears and the tongue which never get tired of hearing and reciting Gurbani.
