It is that thing, that thing is something;
It is that thing, that thing is something;
That something is everything, it is everything
Before that something, we are nothing
When you are in tune with that something;
Then in this world, you will know everything
Knowing that thing, in this world, you know everything
Knowing that, you will know, right and wrong thing
If you do not know that thing, you do not know anything
When you are not sure of anything, how could you be sure of everything
Strive hard to know that thing, you will be sure of everything
Satguru Shri Devendra Ghia (Kaka)

SATGURU DEVENDRA GHIA (KAKA)
| English Explanation |
|
Our beloved Guruji, Shri Devendra Ghia (lovingly known as Kaka), is a complete and total devotee of the Divine Mother and the Almighty God, in all their many appearances (Avatars), and has written an incredible 10,000+ hymns with Divine inspiration. In this English hymn, He is showing us the importance of acknowledging the Almighty and having complete faith -
All of us need to be focused on something or the other in our life to keep ourselves engaged ; but, our focus keeps shifting from one thing to another to another and we have no respite
The only thing that we can be singularly focused is on ; God is what should be of utmost importance to us as God is everything
God is and must be the central most focus for us ; before God and without God, we are of no significance and neither will our life have any significance
When we align ourselves directly with just God, we will be able to experience God in many, many ways and His grace will become obvious to us
When we come to know and experience God, we will have no need or any desire to know anything else or want anything else
We will know what is life all about, what we must do and not do, what will bring us closer to become one with God and what will not
If we do not accept the presence of God in our life, we will not be able to get any help from God
We will continue to flounder on our own, with feeble and wasted efforts
We will not have the surety about anything ; we will not have any kind of focus and will not be able to engage productively
Only having God as our sole focus will lead us to become closer to Him and his Divine grace will give us the real purpose of our life and help us become one with Him
This world and life is a continuous puzzlement and bewilderment ; we often meander in listless pursuits. But instead, pursuing God Himself will lead us to an enlightened way forward and with complete faith and surrender to Him, we will be permitted to get closer to Him such that we will be on our path of becoming one with Him ultimately.
