I came to the Guru, to learn the Way of Yoga.
208
:
2690
The True Guru has revealed it to me through the Word of the Shabad. ||1||Pause||
208
:
2691
He is contained in the nine continents of the world, and within this body; each and every moment, I humbly bow to Him.
208
:
2692
I have made the Guru's Teachings my ear-rings, and I have enshrined the One Formless Lord within my being. ||1||
208
:
2693
I have brought the five disciples together, and they are now under the control of the one mind.

2694
When the ten hermits become obedient to the Lord, then I became an immaculate Yogi. ||2||
208
:
2695
I have burnt my doubt, and smeared my body with the ashes. My path is to see the One and Only Lord.
208
:
2696
I have made that intuitive peace my food; the Lord Master has written this pre-ordained destiny upon my forehead. ||3||
208
:
2697
In that place where there is no fear, I have assumed my Yogic posture. The unstruck melody of His Bani is my horn.
208
:
2698
I have made contemplation upon the essential reality my Yogic staff. The Love of the Name in my mind is my Yogic lifestyle. ||4||
208
:

By great good fortune, such a Yogi is met, who cuts away the bonds of Maya.

The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is an incomparably beautiful treasure. Listen, everyone, and meditate on it, O friends.
208
:
2703
Those, unto whom the Guru has given the Lord's medicine - their minds become pure and immaculate. ||1||Pause||
208
:
2704
Darkness is dispelled from within that body, in which the Divine Light of the Guru's Shabad shines.
208
:
2705
The noose of doubt is cut away from those who place their faith in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||1||
208
:
2706
The treacherous and terrifying world-ocean is crossed over, in the boat of the Saadh Sangat.
208
:
2707
My mind's desires are fulfilled, meeting the Guru, in love with the Lord. ||2||
208

The devotees have found the treasure of the Naam; their minds and bodies are satisfied and satiated.

Please be kind and compassionate, O Lord of my life; I am helpless, and I seek Your Sanctuary, God.
208
:
2712
Please, give me Your Hand, and lift me up, out of the deep dark pit. I have no clever tricks at all. ||1||Pause||
208
:
2713
You are the Doer, the Cause of causes - You are everything. You are All-powerful; there is no other than You.
208
:
2714
You alone know Your condition and extent. They alone become Your servants, upon whose foreheads such good destiny is recorded. ||1||
208
:
2715
You are imbued with Your servant, God; Your devotees are woven into Your Fabric, through and through.
208
:
2716
O Darling Beloved, they yearn for Your Name and the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, like the chakvee bird which longs to see the moon. ||2||
208
:
2717
Between the Lord and His Saint, there is no difference at all. Among hundreds of thousands and millions, there is scarcely one humble being.
208
:
2718
Those whose hearts are illuminated by God, sing the Kirtan of His Praises night and day with their tongues. ||3||
208
:
2719
You are All-powerful and Infinite, the most lofty and exalted, the Giver of peace; O God, You are the Support of the breath of life.

Please show mercy to Nanak, O God, that he may remain in the Society of the Saints. ||4||13||134||
