361 : 626
but the Guru's system is profound and unequalled. ||1||

361 : 627
The Guru's system is the way to liberation.

361 : 628
The True Lord Himself comes to dwell in the mind. ||1||Pause||

361 : 629
Through the Guru's system, the world is saved,

361 : 630
if it is embraced with love and affection.

361 : 631
How rare is that person who truly loves the Guru's Way.

361 : 632
Through the Guru's system, everlasting peace is obtained. ||2||

361 : 633
Through the Guru's system, the Door of Salvation is obtained.

361 : 634
Serving the True Guru, one's family is saved.

361 : 635
There is no salvation for those who have no Guru.

361 : 636
Beguiled by worthless sins, they are struck down. ||3||

361 : 637
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, the body finds peace and tranquility.

361 : 638
The Gurmukh is not afflicted by pain.

361 : 639
The Messenger of Death does not come near him.

361 : 640
O Nanak, the Gurmukh is absorbed in the True Lord. ||4||1||40||

361 : 641
Aasaa, Third Mehl:

361 : 642
One who dies in the Word of the Shabad, eradicates his self-conceit from within.

361 : 643
He serves the True Guru, with no iota of self-interest.

361 : 644
The Fearless Lord, the Great Giver, ever abides in his mind.

361 : 645
The True Bani of the Word is obtained only by good destiny. ||1||

361 : 646
So gather merits, and let your demerits depart from within you.

361 : 647
You shall be absorbed into the Shabad, the Word of the Perfect Guru. ||1||Pause||

361 : 648
One who purchases merits, knows the value of these merits.

361 : 649
He chants the Ambrosial Nectar of the Word, and the Name of the Lord.

361 : 650
Through the True Bani of the Word, he becomes pure.

361 : 651
Through merit, the Name is obtained. ||2||

361 : 652
The invaluable merits cannot be acquired.

361 : 653
The pure mind is absorbed into the True Word of the Shabad.

361 : 654
How very fortunate are those who meditate on the Naam,

361 : 655
and ever enshrine in their minds the Lord, the Giver of merit. ||3||

361 : 656
I am a sacrifice to those who gather merits.

361 : 657
At the Gate of Truth, I sing the Glorious Praises of the True One.

361 : 658
He Himself spontaneously bestows His gifts.

361 : 659
O Nanak, the value of the Lord cannot be described. ||4||2||41||

361 : 660
Aasaa, Third Mehl:

361 : 661
Great is the greatness of the True Guru;

361 : 662
He merges in His Merger, those who have been separated for so long.

361 : 663
He Himself merges the merged in His Merger.

361 : 664
He Himself knows His own worth. ||1||

361 : 665
How can anyone appraise the Lord's worth?

361 : 666
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, one may merge with the Infinite, Unapproachable and Incomprehensible Lord. ||1||Pause||

361 : 667
Few are the Gurmukhs who know His worth.

361 : 668
How rare are those who receive the Lord's Grace.

361 : 669
Through the Sublime Bani of His Word, one becomes sublime.

361 : 670
The Gurmukh chants the Word of the Shabad. ||2||

361 : 671
Without the Name, the body suffers in pain;

361 : 672
but when one meets the True Guru, then that pain is removed.

361 : 673
Without meeting the Guru, the mortal earns only pain.

361 : 674
The self-willed manmukh receives only more punishment. ||3||

361 : 675
The essence of the Lord's Name is so very sweet;

361 : 676
he alone drinks it, whom the Lord causes to drink it.

361 : 677
By Guru's Grace, the essence of the Lord is obtained.

361 : 678
O Nanak, imbued with the Naam, the Name of the Lord, salvation is attained. ||4||3||42||

361 : 679
Aasaa, Third Mehl:

361 : 680
My God is True, deep and profound.

361 : 681
Serving Him, the body acquires peace and tranquility.

361 : 682
Through the Word of the Shabad, His humble servants easily swim across.

361 : 683
I fall at their feet forever and ever. ||1||
