Manmukh Moh Viaapiaa Bairaag Udhaasee Na Hoi Uthanika (Preface) - Ang 29

In this Katha clip, Sant Giani Hari Singh (Randhawe Wale) provides the preface to the Shabad "Manmukh Moh Viaapiaa Bairaag Udhaasee Na Hoi," found on Ang 29 of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj. In this preface, Maharaj highlights the contrasting states of a manmukh (self-willed person) and a gurmukh (Guru-oriented being).

 

ਮਨਮੁਖੁ ਮੋਹਿ ਵਿਆਪਿਆ ਬੈਰਾਗੁ ਉਦਾਸੀ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥

The self-willed manmukhs are engrossed in emotional attachment; they are not balanced or detached.
