Jap Ji Sahib: Guru Nanak's Meditation - New English Translations

Recital: Bhai Jagjit Singh ji (Australia)
Writer: Guru Nanak
Translations: Brother of Heaven
Raag: Not Assigned

Around 2020 lockdown when my high school closed, and the whole world felt like it was falling apart. I found solace in my bedroom learning about Sikhi.
What really warmed my heart about this Nanak Shabad, is that this Japji Sahib is written right at the start of the Sikh holy scripture, the Guru Granth Sahib.
And he has really made this path of God (self mastery) simple to understand.
Before he introduced his 38 puaris, steps to high vibrations, he starts off sharing with you where this all starts, which is within you, “the only way out is in”.
The whole world, Maya, matrix, earths games, shows you fear, lack, victim consciousness, all designed so you look within.
Nanaks Mool Matra, the root of who you are is abundance, has no rivalry, all your life it is you giving to yourself, with what you accept to be true, and align to.
Very beautifully it starts with “Ik Onkar” and “Ik” is the digit 1 in Punjabi, so its funny how in maths books the answers are always at the end pages, here Nanak put it right at the start.
“Ik”, one is the answer, “Ik Onkar” - All is One, start here.
