Today’s hukamnamma is a blessing to us by Guru Ram Das Ji, the 4th light of Guru Nanak, through raag sohee. Raag Soohee is a raag of complete adoration and love. Where one is absorbed completely into one’s beloved, completely joined and united. It is in "ghar pehla", the first house of the taals.

"Ik-oNkaar satgur parsaad."

Guruji begins this beautiful shabad with the mangala charan. There is one universal being who is "sat", forever true and "gurprasaad", is found through the grace of the true Guru.
