दुःख में सिमरन सब करे

दुःख में सिमरन सब करे, सुख में करे न कोय| जो सुख में सिमरन करे तो दुःख काहे को होय||

Everyone worships God when happy , none when sad;If he who is happy worships God,why should there be sadness

Kabir emphasises and reiterates the need for constant God worship, irrespective of whether there is happiness or sadness in life.The words sumiran, dhyan , prayer and worship mean nearly the same with respect to God.

Bhagwadgeeta says in chapter 12 मय्यावेश्य मनो ये माम नित्ययुक्ता उपासते ;श्रद्धया परया उपेताः ते में युक्ततमा मताः which translates as "Those who are endowed with a firm faith of a special kind beyond material conceptions, fixing the mind upon me ; always engaged exclusively worshiping me ,they are considered by me to be the most superior of all"

Clearly this is considered the best way to attain liberation from the chain of birth and death and it extinguishes all karma , therefore in this way obviously all dukh or sadness also gets extinguished.
