"ਪੋਖਿ ਤੁਖਾਰੁ ਨ ਵਿਆਪਈ ਕੰਠਿ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਹੁ ॥" "पोखि तुखारु न विआपई कंठि मिलिआ हरि नाहु ॥"

"Pokh tukhār na viāpī kaṇṭh miliā har nāhu."

This line is from Guru Granth Sahib Ji, the central scripture of Sikhism. It reflects the idea of divine connection and spiritual warmth that transcends worldly hardships. Let’s explore the meaning in detail:

1. ਪੋਖਿ ਤੁਖਾਰੁ (Pokh Tukhār):
   This refers to the chilling cold, symbolizing worldly challenges, hardships, or suffering that one might encounter in life. It can also represent inner emotional turbulence or spiritual barrenness.

2. ਨ ਵਿਆਪਈ (Na Viāpī):
   This means "does not affect." It emphasizes a state of spiritual resilience where worldly troubles lose their power over the soul.

3. ਕੰਠਿ ਮਿਲਿਆ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਹੁ (Kaṇṭh Miliā Har Nāhu):
   This phrase describes an intimate union with the Divine, where one feels embraced by God. The word "ਕੰਠਿ" (Kaṇṭh) symbolizes a close, loving embrace, and "ਹਰਿ ਨਾਹੁ" (Har Nāhu) refers to the Lord, the eternal spouse or beloved.

   
   

   When one experiences such closeness with the Divine, their soul is nurtured and protected, much like how warmth dispels cold.
