Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:
445
:
4371
In the Golden Age of Sat Yuga, everyone embodied contentment and meditation; religion stood upon four feet.
445
:
4372
With mind and body, they sang of the Lord, and attained supreme peace. In their hearts was the spiritual wisdom of the Lord's Glorious Virtues.
445
:
4373
Their wealth was the spiritual wisdom of the Lord's Glorious Virtues; the Lord was their success, and to live as Gurmukh was their glory.
445
:
4374
Inwardly and outwardly, they saw only the One Lord God; for them there was no other second.
445
:
4375
They centered their consciousness lovingly on the Lord, Har, Har. The Lord's Name was their companion, and in the Court of the Lord, they obtained honor.

Then came the Silver Age of Trayta Yuga; men's minds were ruled by power, and they practiced celibacy and self-discipline.

:
4378
The fourth foot of religion dropped off, and three remained. Their hearts and minds were inflamed with anger.
445
:
4379
Their hearts and minds were filled with the horribly poisonous essence of anger. The kings fought their wars and obtained only pain.
445
:
4380
Their minds were afflicted with the illness of egotism, and their self-conceit and arrogance increased.
445
:
4381
If my Lord, Har, Har, shows His Mercy, my Lord and Master eradicates the poison by the Guru's Teachings and the Lord's Name.

445
:
4384
The penitents practiced penance, they offered sacred feasts and charity, and performed many rituals and religious rites.
445
:
4385
They performed many rituals and religious rites; two legs of religion dropped away, and only two legs remained.
445
:
4386
So many heroes waged great wars; in their egos they were ruined, and they ruined others as well.
445
:
4387
The Lord, Compassionate to the poor, led them to meet the Holy Guru. Meeting the True Guru, their filth is washed away.
