In the sixteenth salok (couplet), Guru Arjan says that a complete being does not ever waver. The complete being is the one who has been made complete by Prabhu, the compassionate IkOankar (One Universal Integrative Force, 1Force, the One) whose inherent nature is to help us. It is the being who has been made complete by IkOankar who is able to find a condition of constant ascendence. They get better and better each day and never diminish in their completeness.
