Raag Bihaagra - Part 014

550 : 423
Night and day, his doubts never stop; without the Word of the Shabad, he suffers in pain.

550 : 424
Sexual desire, anger and greed are so powerful within him; he passes his life constantly entangled in worldly affairs.

550 : 425
His feet, hands, eyes and ears are exhausted; his days are numbered, and his death is immanent.

550 : 426
The True Name does not seem sweet to him - the Name by which the nine treasures are obtained.

550 : 427
But if he remains dead while yet alive, then by so dying, he truly lives; thus, he attains liberation.

550 : 428
But if he is not blessed with such pre-ordained karma, then without this karma, what can he obtain?

550 : 429
Meditate in remembrance on the Word of the Guru's Shabad, you fool; through the Shabad, you shall obtain salvation and wisdom.

550 : 430
O Nanak, he alone finds the True Guru, who eliminates self-conceit from within. ||2||

550 : 431
Pauree:

550 : 432
One whose consciousness is filled with my Lord Master - why should he feel anxious about anything?

550 : 433
The Lord is the Giver of Peace, the Lord of all things; why would we turn our faces away from His meditation, even for a moment, or an instant?

550 : 434
One who meditates on the Lord obtains all pleasures and comforts; let us go each and every day, to sit in the Saints' Society.

550 : 435
All the pain, hunger, and disease of the Lord's servant are eradicated; the bonds of the humble beings are torn away.

550 : 436
By the Lord's Grace, one becomes the Lord's devotee; beholding the face of the Lord's humble devotee, the whole world is saved and carried across. ||4||

550 : 437
Shalok, Third Mehl:

550 : 438
Let that tongue, which has not tasted the Name of the Lord, be burnt.

550 : 439
O Nanak, one whose mind is filled with the Name of the Lord, Har, Har - his tongue savors the Word of the Shabad. ||1||

550 : 440
Third Mehl:

550 : 441
Let that tongue, which has forgotten the Name of the Lord, be burnt.

550 : 442
O Nanak, the tongue of the Gurmukh chants the Lord's Name, and loves the Name of the Lord. ||2||

550 : 443
Pauree:

550 : 444
The Lord Himself is the Master, the servant and the devotee; the Lord Himself is the Cause of causes.

550 : 445
The Lord Himself beholds, and He Himself rejoices. As He wills, so does He enjoin us.

550 : 446
The Lord places some on the Path, and the Lord leads others into the wilderness.

550 : 447
The Lord is the True Master; True is His justice. He arranges and beholds all His plays.

550 : 448
By Guru's Grace, servant Nanak speaks and sings the Glorious Praises of the True Lord. ||5||

550 : 449
Shalok, Third Mehl:

550 : 450
How rare is the dervish, the Saintly renunciate, who understands renunciation.

550 : 451
Cursed is the life, and cursed are the clothes, of one who wanders around, begging from door to door.

550 : 452
But, if he abandons hope and anxiety, and as Gurmukh receives the Name as his charity,

550 : 453
then Nanak washes his feet, and is a sacrifice to him. ||1||

550 : 454
Third Mehl:

550 : 455
O Nanak, the tree has one fruit, but two birds are perched upon it.

550 : 456
They are not seen coming or going; these birds have no wings.

550 : 457
One enjoys so many pleasures, while the other, through the Word of the Shabad, remains in Nirvaanaa.

550 : 458
Imbued with the subtle essence of the fruit of the Lord's Name, O Nanak, the soul bears the True Insignia of God's Grace. ||2||

550 : 459
Pauree:

550 : 460
He Himself is the field, and He Himself is the farmer. He Himself grows and grinds the corn.

550 : 461
He Himself cooks it, He Himself puts the food in the dishes, and He Himself sits down to eat.
