|ਜੋ ਸਤਿਗਰ ਸਰਣਿ ਸੰਗਤਿ ਨਹੀ ਆਝ ਧਰਿਗ ਜੀਵੇ ਧਰਿਗ ਜੀਵਾਸਿ ॥੩॥|
Jo saṯgur saraṇ sangaṯ nahī ĝė ḝẖarig jīvė ḝẖarig jīvĝs. ॥3॥
ਸਤਿਗਰ ਭੇਟੇ ਸੋ ਸਖ ਪਾਝ ॥ (One who meets the True Guru finds peace.)
Sat + Guru = Who have Knowledge of Truth, Who tells, What is real Dharam, What are you doing and for what you are here for. Satguru = Person, Satguru = Chitt and Satguru = Parameshwar. But to get eternal peace you have to agree and follow with his wordings (ਹਰਿ ਕਾ ਨਾਮ ਮੰਨਿ ਵਸਾਝ ॥)
