✨ Daily Hukamnama Reflection – SGGS Ang 1275 ✨
ਦਸ ਬਸਤੂ ਲੇ ਪਾਛੈ ਪਾਵੈ ॥ ਏਕ ਬਸਤੁ ਕਾਰਨਿ ਬਿਖੋਟਿ ਗਵਾਵੈ ॥
ਏਕ ਭੀ ਨ ਦੇਇ ਦਸ ਭੀ ਹਿਰਿ ਲੇਇ ॥ ਤਉ ਮੂੜਾ ਕਹੁ ਕਹਾ ਕਰੇਇ ॥
दस बसतू ले पाछै पावै ॥ एक बसतु कारनि बिखोटि गवावै ॥
एक भी न देइ दस भी हिरि लेइ ॥ तउ मूड़ा कहु कहा करेइ ॥
Ḏas basṯū le pācẖẖai pāvai. Ėk basaṯ kāran bikẖot gavāvai.
Ėk bẖī na ḏee ḏas bẖī hir lee. Ŧao mūṛā kaho kahā karei.
🌿 Meaning (English):
A person receives ten blessings but puts them aside, becoming upset over the one thing not received. But if Waheguru were to withhold that one thing and also take back the ten already given, what could that person do?
🌿 ਅਰਥ (Punjabi - Gurmukhi):
ਮਨੁੱਖ ਨੂੰ ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਵੱਲੋਂ ਅਨੇਕਾਂ ਦਾਤਾਂ ਮਿਲਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ, ਪਰ ਉਹ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਭੁਲਾ ਕੇ ਉਸ ਇੱਕ ਚੀਜ਼ ਲਈ ਦੁਖੀ ਹੋ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਨਹੀਂ ਮਿਲੀ। ਜੇ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਉਹ ਇੱਕ ਵੀ ਨਾ ਦੇਵੇ ਅਤੇ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਮਿਲੀਆਂ ਦਾਤਾਂ ਵੀ ਵਾਪਸ ਲੈ ਲਵੇ, ਤਾਂ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਕੀ ਕਰ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ?
🌿 अर्थ (Hindi):
मनुष्य को परमात्मा से अनेक आशीषें मिलती हैं, लेकिन वह उन्हें भूलकर उस एक चीज़ के लिए दुखी हो जाता है जो उसे नहीं मिली। यदि प्रभु वह एक भी न दें और पहले दी हुई दस वस्तुएँ भी वापस ले लें, तो मनुष्य क्या कर सकता है?
💫 Reflection:
This Hukamnama gives us a powerful lesson in gratitude. We can easily overlook the many blessings already present in our lives because our attention becomes fixed on the one thing we still want.
Guru Sahib reminds us to recognise what Waheguru has already given—life, breath, family, opportunities, food, shelter, love, and countless blessings we may take for granted.
Contentment does not mean that we stop working towards our goals. It means that while making sincere efforts, we remain grateful for what we already have and trust Waheguru when something does not happen according to our wishes.
A grateful heart sees abundance where an ungrateful mind sees only what is missing.
🌼 Message for Today:
Before worrying about the one thing you do not have, remember the many blessings Waheguru has already placed in your life. Gratitude turns what we have into enough.
