Dear Tejwant ji,
Please forgive me for jumping in and being blatant. Your translation is distorted and incorrect.
The shabad reflects the Love of Lord /His Devotion and significance of Naam simran or Naam Japna. Kindly refer to Dr. Sahib singh ji [ Page 1133 of Guru Granth Sahib] for correct and detailed meaning.
Prahlad was in devotion to" Naam"/name, by whichever name called of his
Isht i.e the one in whom he believed.
The shabad is an example of as to how a devotee, having faith in his Lord, can get Mukti/Liberation by constant simran of Naam or Name of Lord/God/Rab/ Creator.
Prahlad is stated to have been in simran of His Guru/God/Lord/ Rab... through constant and continuous remembrance of his Naam/Name. He got his 21 generations liberated as well.
One cannot generalize the meaning to suit convenience for short term objectives. In sikhi this is ruled out.
Respected Prakash. S. Bagga ji
Har mandar is inside us i.e in our mind. This body is, therefore, Hari Mandar. One should be fully ware of the Gurbani words. I fully appreciate your message. Posted below is one Full-shabad dealing with Har mandar. Gurbani has many references to the term Hari Mandar/Har Mandar all pointing to the same that is body/mind being the temple of God.
