Guru Nanak Sahib describes the lives of a miserable, separated individual and the blissful life of a united being. This is followed by a plea for grace so that the seeker’s mind can be dyed in the love of IkOankar (the Divine). Even if the being has numerous worldly comforts, the separated individual suffers. By enshrining the Wisdom (Guru) in the heart, the blissful union with IkOankar is experienced. Reflecting on the Wisdom, the individual is liberated from ego and arrogance and receives honor in the court of IkOankar. This
Sabad encourages seekers to invite into their consciousness and connect to Nam (Identification with IkOankar).
