Siree Raag - Part 006

19 : 191
In this world, you shall not find any shelter; in the world hereafter, being false, you shall suffer. ||1||Pause||

19 : 192
The True Lord Himself knows all; He makes no mistakes. He is the Great Farmer of the Universe.

19 : 193
First, He prepares the ground, and then He plants the Seed of the True Name.

19 : 194
The nine treasures are produced from Name of the One Lord. By His Grace, we obtain His Banner and Insignia. ||2||

19 : 195
Some are very knowledgeable, but if they do not know the Guru, then what is the use of their lives?

19 : 196
The blind have forgotten the Naam, the Name of the Lord. The self-willed manmukhs are in utter darkness.

19 : 197
Their comings and goings in reincarnation do not end; through death and rebirth, they are wasting away. ||3||

19 : 198
The bride may buy sandalwood oil and perfumes, and apply them in great quantities to her hair;

19 : 199
she may sweeten her breath with betel leaf and camphor,

19 : 200
but if this bride is not pleasing to her Husband Lord, then all these trappings are false. ||4||

19 : 201
Her enjoyment of all pleasures is futile, and all her decorations are corrupt.

19 : 202
Until she has been pierced through with the Shabad, how can she look beautiful at Guru's Gate?

19 : 203
O Nanak, blessed is that fortunate bride, who is in love with her Husband Lord. ||5||13||

19 : 204
Siree Raag, First Mehl:

19 : 205
The empty body is dreadful, when the soul goes out from within.

19 : 206
The burning fire of life is extinguished, and the smoke of the breath no longer emerges.

19 : 207
The five relatives (the senses) weep and wail painfully, and waste away through the love of duality. ||1||

19 : 208
You fool: chant the Name of the Lord, and preserve your virtue.

19 : 209
Egotism and possessiveness are very enticing; egotistical pride has plundered everyone. ||1||Pause||

19 : 210
Those who have forgotten the Naam, the Name of the Lord, are attached to affairs of duality.

19 : 211
Attached to duality, they putrefy and die; they are filled with the fire of desire within.

19 : 212
Those who are protected by the Guru are saved; all others are cheated and plundered by deceitful worldly affairs. ||2||

19 : 213
Love dies, and affection vanishes. Hatred and alienation die.

19 : 214
Entanglements end, and egotism dies, along with attachment to Maya, possessiveness and anger.

19 : 215
Those who receive His Mercy obtain the True One. The Gurmukhs dwell forever in balanced restraint. ||3||

19 : 216
By true actions, the True Lord is met, and the Guru's Teachings are found.

19 : 217
Then, they are not subject to birth and death; they do not come and go in reincarnation.

19 : 218
O Nanak, they are respected at the Lord's Gate; they are robed in honor in the Court of the Lord. ||4||14||

19 : 219
Siree Raag, First Mehl:

19 : 220
The body is burnt to ashes; by its love of Maya, the mind is rusted through.

19 : 221
Demerits become one's enemies, and falsehood blows the bugle of attack.

19 : 222
Without the Word of the Shabad, people wander lost in reincarnation. Through the love of duality, multitudes have been drowned. ||1||

19 : 223
O mind, swim across, by focusing your consciousness on the Shabad.

19 : 224
Those who do not become Gurmukh do not understand the Naam; they die, and continue coming and going in reincarnation. ||1||Pause||

19 : 225
That body is said to be pure, in which the True Name abides.

19 : 226
One whose body is imbued with the Fear of the True One, and whose tongue savors Truthfulness,

19 : 227
is brought to ecstasy by the True Lord's Glance of Grace. That person does not have to go through the fire of the womb again. ||2||

19 : 228
From the True Lord came the air, and from the air came water.

19 : 229
From water, He created the three worlds; in each and every heart He has infused His Light.

19 : 230
The Immaculate Lord does not become polluted. Attuned to the Shabad, honor is obtained. ||3||

19 : 231
One whose mind is contented with Truthfulness, is blessed with the Lord's Glance of Grace.
