ਗ੍ਰਾਮੁ (graam) Meaning: noun: Village. |
Quote: kabeer soee mukh dhaňn hai jaa mukh kaheeai raam. |
Message: Those who have lived in a village would know that rural people socialize or meet each other more often than urban people, though the situation is changing in modern times. A virtuous person would influence and change the behaviour of others he or she engages in conversations with or meets regularly. Such a person could transform or purify people of a whole village. It needs to be understood that even though Bhagat Kabir talks about uttering the name of the Divine, the utterance is not limited to chanting with the mouth only. It implies that the person remembers the Divine and embodies divine qualities as well. People would only follow a person who practises what he or she preaches. Etymology: From Sanskrit gram→ Punjabi gaav→ Hindi gaanv (village, hamlet, suburb). |
