Feild of wants.

Everything is fine, life is going well, and everyone seems happy. My outer face pretends that I am happy, too... but am I truly? Have I found what I really want—the thing I have searched for everywhere, from the grass to the trees, from people to animals, and from the earth to the stars?

​Am I truly happy, or am I just drifting with the flow?

​Ya Rabba, talk to me. I can hear the hymns from Your Darbar. I can hear the doves chanting Your name, the grass praising Your love, and the mist conveying Your glory. Oh Lord, You gave me a chance—did I misuse it? Oh Rabba, what must I do to attain peace?

​Oh Waheguru, I am wandering in the fields of wants. Guide me to Your Darbar; show me the right path, the one I am meant to walk. Protect me from the wrongs I might commit. Give me the strength to help others.

​Oh Waheguru, the world is full of enmity and grief; show me a path beyond this. Even now, I can hear the Gurbani from Your Gurudwaras. I can smell the aroma of Kada Prasad. I see the people performing Seva. I hear the echoes of poetry from Bulleh Shah, Kabir, and Mirabai... Oh Lord, they all praise the same Truth.

​I stand here in the "field of wants," surrounded by the crops of love, greed, lust, and Maya. What should I choose? What should I carry in my mind, and what should I give to others? Ya Rabba, Ya Allah—the Formless One, the One beyond time and death—guide me through this field.

​"Anand bha-i-aa mayree maa-ay satguroo mai paa-i-aa..."

​O my mother, I am in a state of supreme spiritual bliss because I have finally found the True Guru. This realization came naturally and intuitively, filling my mind with a deep sense of celebration...
