Thousands of clever mental tricks have been tried, but still, the raw and undisciplined mind does not absorb the Color of the Lord's Love.

:
1035
By falsehood and deception, none have found Him. Whatever you plant, you shall eat. ||3||
40
:
1036
O God, You are the Hope of all. All beings are Yours; You are the Wealth of all.
40
:
1037
O God, none return from You empty-handed; at Your Door, the Gurmukhs are praised and acclaimed.
40
:
1038
In the terrifying world-ocean of poison, people are drowning-please lift them up and save them! This is servant Nanak's humble prayer. ||4||1||65||

Siree Raag, Fourth Mehl:
40
:
1040
Receiving the Naam, the mind is satisfied; without the Naam, life is cursed.
40
:
1041
If I meet the Gurmukh, my Spiritual Friend, he will show me God, the Treasure of Excellence.
40
:
1042
I am every bit a sacrifice to one who reveals to me the Naam. ||1||
40
:
1043
O my Beloved, I live by meditating on Your Name.
40
:
1044
Without Your Name, my life does not even exist. My True Guru has implanted the Naam within me. ||1||Pause||
40
:
1045
The Naam is a Priceless Jewel; it is with the Perfect True Guru.
40
:
1046
When one is enjoined to serve the True Guru, He brings out this Jewel and bestows this enlightenment.
40
:
1047
Blessed, and most fortunate of the very fortunate, are those who come to meet the Guru. ||2||
40
:
1048
Those who have not met the Primal Being, the True Guru, are most unfortunate, and are subject to death.
40
:
1049
They wander in reincarnation over and over again, as the most disgusting maggots in manure.
40
:
1050
Do not meet with, or even approach those people, whose hearts are filled with horrible anger. ||3||
40
:
1051
The True Guru, the Primal Being, is the Pool of Ambrosial Nectar. The very fortunate ones come to bathe in it.
40
:
1052
The filth of many incarnations is washed away, and the Immaculate Naam is implanted within.
40
:
1053
Servant Nanak has obtained the most exalted state, lovingly attuned to the True Guru. ||4||2||66||

Siree Raag, Fourth Mehl:
40
:
1055
I sing His Glories, I describe His Glories, I speak of His Glories, O my mother.
40
:
1056
The Gurmukhs, my spiritual friends, bestow virtue. Meeting with my spiritual friends, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.
40
:
1057
The Diamond of the Guru has pierced the diamond of my mind, which is now dyed in the deep crimson color of the Name. ||1||
40
:
1058
O my Lord of the Universe, singing Your Glorious Praises, my mind is satisfied.
40
:
1059
Within me is the thirst for the Lord's Name; may the Guru, in His Pleasure, grant it to me. ||1||Pause||
40
:
1060
Let your minds be imbued with His Love, O blessed and fortunate ones. By His Pleasure, the Guru bestows His Gifts.
40
:
1061
The Guru has lovingly implanted the Naam, the Name of the Lord, within me; I am a sacrifice to the True Guru.
40
:
1062
Without the True Guru, the Name of the Lord is not found, even though people may perform hundreds of thousands, even millions of rituals. ||2||
40
:
1063
Without destiny, the True Guru is not found, even though He sits within the home of our own inner being, always near and close at hand.
40
:
1064
There is ignorance within, and the pain of doubt, like a separating screen.
40
:
1065
Without meeting with the True Guru, no one is transformed into gold. The self-willed manmukh sinks like iron, while the boat is very close. ||3||
40
:
1066
The Boat of the True Guru is the Name of the Lord. How can we climb on board?
40
:
1067
One who walks in harmony with the True Guru's Will comes to sit in this Boat.
40
:
1068
Blessed, blessed are those very fortunate ones, O Nanak, who are united with the Lord through the True Guru. ||4||3||67||
