O Nanak, He blossoms forth, Carefree and Untroubled.
This Mantra describes the endless and countless attributes of that Nirgun, invisible, invincible yet omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient creator of all of us - His power, His knowledge, His attributes, His gifts, blessings, are bountiful beyond description - He cannot be sung and described by anyone - He is the creator - He creates and destroys too and then restores life again. He is far, far away but so near. He is the sustainer and giver of everything and we get weary of receiving. Everything is happening and working according to His Hukam/Order and Will. He - the Supreme Almighty who is the Creator of the whole Creation yet He, who is detached and beyond any bondage of attachment, rejoices at His Creation. And its part of all us.
