603 : 279
Without the Guru, love for the Lord does not well up, O Siblings of Destiny; the self-willed manmukhs are engrossed in the love of duality.

603 : 280
Actions performed by the manmukh are like the threshing of the chaff - they obtain nothing for their efforts. ||2||

603 : 281
Meeting the Guru, the Naam comes to permeate the mind, O Siblings of Destiny, with true love and affection.

603 : 282
He always sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord, O Siblings of Destiny, with infinite love for the Guru. ||3||

603 : 283
How blessed and approved is his coming into the world, O Siblings of Destiny, who focuses his mind on serving the Guru.

603 : 284
O Nanak, the Name of the Lord is obtained, O Siblings of Destiny, through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, and we merge with the Lord. ||4||8||

603 : 285
Sorat'h, Third Mehl, First House:

603 : 286
The three worlds are entangled in the three qualities, O Siblings of Destiny; the Guru imparts understanding.

603 : 287
Attached to the Lord's Name, one is emancipated, O Siblings of Destiny; go and ask the wise ones about this. ||1||

603 : 288
O mind, renounce the three qualities, and focus your consciousness on the fourth state.

603 : 289
The Dear Lord abides in the mind, O Siblings of Destiny; ever sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||Pause||

603 : 290
From the Naam, everyone originated, O Siblings of Destiny; forgetting the Naam, they die away.

603 : 291
The ignorant world is blind, O Siblings of Destiny; those who sleep are plundered. ||2||

603 : 292
Those Gurmukhs who remain awake are saved, O Siblings of Destiny; they cross over the terrifying world-ocean.

603 : 293
In this world, the Name of the Lord is the true profit, O Siblings of Destiny; keep it enshrined within your heart. ||3||

603 : 294
In the Guru's Sanctuary, O Siblings of Destiny, you shall be saved; be lovingly attuned to the Lord's Name.

603 : 295
O Nanak, the Name of the Lord is the boat, and the Name is the raft, O Siblings of Destiny; setting out on it, the Lord's humble servant crosses over the world-ocean. ||4||9||

603 : 296
Sorat'h, Third Mehl, First House:

603 : 297
The True Guru is the ocean of peace in the world; there is no other place of rest and peace.

603 : 298
The world is afflicted with the painful disease of egotism; dying, only to be reborn, it cries out in pain. ||1||

603 : 299
O mind, serve the True Guru, and obtain peace.

603 : 300
If you serve the True Guru, you shall find peace; otherwise, you shall depart, after wasting away your life in vain. ||Pause||

603 : 301
Led around by the three qualities, he does many deeds, but he does not come to taste and savor the subtle essence of the Lord.

603 : 302
He says his evening prayers, and makes offerings of water, and recites his morning prayers, but without true understanding, he still suffers in pain. ||2||

603 : 303
One who serves the True Guru is very fortunate; as the Lord so wills, he meets with the Guru.

603 : 304
Drinking in the sublime essence of the Lord, His humble servants remain ever satisfied; they eradicate self-conceit from within themselves. ||3||

603 : 305
This world is blind, and all act blindly; without the Guru, no one finds the Path.

603 : 306
O Nanak, meeting with the True Guru, one sees with his eyes, and finds the True Lord within the home of his own being. ||4||10||

603 : 307
Sorat'h, Third Mehl:

603 : 308
Without serving the True Guru, he suffers in terrible pain, and throughout the four ages, he wanders aimlessly.

603 : 309
I am poor and meek, and throughout the ages, You are the Great Giver - please, grant me the understanding of the Shabad. ||1||

603 : 310
O Dear Beloved Lord, please show mercy to me.

603 : 311
Unite me in the Union of the True Guru, the Great Giver, and give me the support of the Lord's Name. ||Pause||

603 : 312
Conquering my desires and duality, I have merged in celestial peace, and I have found the Naam, the Name of the Infinite Lord.

603 : 313
I have tasted the sublime essence of the Lord, and my soul has become immaculately pure; the Lord is the Destroyer of sins. ||2||
