16 : 68
I am a sacrifice to those who hear and chant the True Name.

16 : 69
Only one who obtains a room in the Mansion of the Lord's Presence is deemed to be truly intoxicated. ||2||

16 : 70
Bathe in the waters of Goodness and apply the scented oil of Truth to your body,

16 : 71
and your face shall become radiant. This is the gift of 100,000 gifts.

16 : 72
Tell your troubles to the One who is the Source of all comfort. ||3||

16 : 73
How can you forget the One who created your soul, and the praanaa, the breath of life?

16 : 74
Without Him, all that we wear and eat is impure.

16 : 75
Everything else is false. Whatever pleases Your Will is acceptable. ||4||5||

16 : 76
Siree Raag, First Mehl:

16 : 77
Burn emotional attachment, and grind it into ink. Transform your intelligence into the purest of paper.

16 : 78
Make the love of the Lord your pen, and let your consciousness be the scribe. Then, seek the Guru's Instructions, and record these deliberations.

16 : 79
Write the Praises of the Naam, the Name of the Lord; write over and over again that He has no end or limitation. ||1||

16 : 80
O Baba, write such an account,

16 : 81
that when it is asked for, it will bring the Mark of Truth. ||1||Pause||

16 : 82
There, where greatness, eternal peace and everlasting joy are bestowed,

16 : 83
the faces of those whose minds are attuned to the True Name are anointed with the Mark of Grace.

16 : 84
If one receives God's Grace, then such honors are received, and not by mere words. ||2||

16 : 85
Some come, and some arise and depart. They give themselves lofty names.

16 : 86
Some are born beggars, and some hold vast courts.

16 : 87
Going to the world hereafter, everyone shall realize that without the Name, it is all useless. ||3||

Those who are known as sultans and emperors shall be reduced to dust in the end.

16 : 90
O Nanak, arising and departing, all false attachments are cut away. ||4||6||

16 : 91
Siree Raag, First Mehl:

16 : 92
Believing, all tastes are sweet. Hearing, the salty flavors are tasted;

16 : 93
chanting with one's mouth, the spicy flavors are savored. All these spices have been made from the Sound-current of the Naad.

16 : 94
The thirty-six flavors of ambrosial nectar are in the Love of the One Lord; they are tasted only by one who is blessed by His Glance of Grace. ||1||

16 : 95
O Baba, the pleasures of other foods are false.

16 : 96
Eating them, the body is ruined, and wickedness and corruption enter into the mind. ||1||Pause||

16 : 97
My mind is imbued with the Lord's Love; it is dyed a deep crimson. Truth and charity are my white clothes.

16 : 98
The blackness of sin is erased by my wearing of blue clothes, and meditation on the Lord's Lotus Feet is my robe of honor.

16 : 99
Contentment is my cummerbund, Your Name is my wealth and youth. ||2||

16 : 100
O Baba, the pleasures of other clothes are false.

16 : 101
Wearing them, the body is ruined, and wickedness and corruption enter into the mind. ||1||Pause||

16 : 102
The understanding of Your Way, Lord, is horses, saddles and bags of gold for me.

16 : 103
The pursuit of virtue is my bow and arrow, my quiver, sword and scabbard.

16 : 104
To be distinguished with honor is my drum and banner. Your Mercy is my social status. ||3||

16 : 105
O Baba, the pleasures of other rides are false.

16 : 106
By such rides, the body is ruined, and wickedness and corruption enter into the mind. ||1||Pause||

16 : 107
The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the pleasure of houses and mansions. Your Glance of Grace is my family, Lord.
