It is deeply moving, isn't it. Guru Arjan Dev couples his love for the Satguru with his love for his own father. His love for Guru Ram Das is the metaphor for love for the One, and one love is the way he expresses his love for the One. And from this immeasurably beautiful poetry erupts, teaching us how to love.
