Meera Bai Pad 12 meaning
hari mere jeevan pran adhar
aur asaro naheen tum bin, teenoon lok manjhar
हरि मेरे जीवन प्राण अधार।
और आसरो नाहीं तुम बिन, तीनूँ लोक मँझार॥
Hari, you are the support of my life and breath. Without you I have no other shelter anywhere in the three worlds.
What it means
Everyone needs something they can lean on completely. Naming it, as Meera does, brings comfort and clarity. In hard times, return to what you know truly holds you up.How it helps in real life
- When you are worried: Your father's surgery is tomorrow and you can't sleep. Sit up, name what truly holds you, faith, family, friends, and say it aloud.
- When you feel alone: In a new city with no friends yet, Sunday evenings hit hard. Visit the local temple or gurdwara and just sit among people.
हिंदी में अर्थ
हे हरि, तुम मेरे जीवन और प्राणों का आधार हो। तुम्हारे बिना तीनों लोकों में मेरा कोई और सहारा नहीं।
हर किसी को एक पूरा सहारा चाहिए। मीरा की तरह उसे पहचानना सुकून और स्पष्टता देता है। मुश्किल में उसी सहारे पर लौटें।
Spoken by Meera.
