Given to the Guru Nanuk, an enlightened master who lived over 500 years ago, Mul Mantra contains a profound message promoting self-love, self-acceptance and the recognition of our true nature as being one with infinite intelligence. This gorgeous version performed by the beautiful Sada Sat Kaur is one of my absolute favourites. I dare you not to nod along. Although that's an unfair challenge, I'm really not sure it's possible ;)
There are various translations on the particulars of the precise wording but I especially love this one:
Ek Ong Kar - I am one with all that is
Sat Nam - Truth is my name
Karta Purakh - I am the doer of everything
Nirbhau - I am fearless
Nirvair - I am without vengeance
Akal murat - I am deathless
Ajooni - I am infinite
Saibhang - I am self existent
Gur prasad - This knowing is a blessing that sets me free
Jap - Meditate
Aad sach - I am before time
Jugad sach - I am throughout all the ages
Hai bhi sach - I am forever true
Nanak hosi bhi sach - I am true now
Anyway, if you're ever in need of a boost of energy and a re-calibration with your true self (this is me most mornings) then why not press play and sing along!
