Quote:
ਭਉ ਚੂਕਾ ਨਿਰਭਉ ਹੋਇ ਬਸੇ॥ ਸਗਲ ਬਿਆਧਿ ਮਨ ਤੇ ਖੈ ਨਸੇ॥
ਡਰ ਦੂਰ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਨਿ-ਡਰ ਹੋ ਕੇ ਵੱਸ ਰਹੇ ਹਾਂ। ਸਾਰੇ ਰੋਗ ਮਨ ਤੋਂ ਨਾਸ ਹੋ ਕੇ ਪਿੱਛਾ ਛੱਡ ਗਏ ਹਨ।
bhau chookaa nirbhau hoi base. sagal biaadh man te khai nase.
Fear is lifted and I dwell fearlessly. All diseases are destroyed and banished from the mind. -Guru Arjan Sahib, Guru Granth Sahib, 287
Message: Fear departs, bliss comes
All humans have fear of things small or big. Many fears are natural, others have no basis.
A state of bliss prevails and our woes vanish when we listen to the Guru’s advice. By embodying the wisdom of the Guru in our everyday dealings and behaviour; fear, anxiety and agony are banished from the mind. Doubts and wanderings of the mind end.
We acquire lasting peace and comfort.
Etymology: From Sanskrit kshya (loss, waste) → Pali/Prakrit khaya → Sindhi/Punjabi khai/khau (destruction, loss, annihilation).
