973 : 4379
In the imperishable realm of the Formless Lord, I play the flute of the unstruck sound current. ||1||

973 : 4380
Becoming detached, I sing the Lord's Praises.

973 : 4381
Imbued with the unattached, unstruck Word of the Shabad, I shall go to the home of the Lord, who has no ancestors. ||1||Pause||

973 : 4382
Then, I shall no longer control the breath through the energy channels of the Ida, Pingala and Shushmanaa.

973 : 4383
I look upon both the moon and the sun as the same, and I shall merge in the Light of God. ||2||

973 : 4384
I do not go to see sacred shrines of pilgrimage, or bathe in their waters; I do not bother any beings or creatures.

973 : 4385
The Guru has shown me the sixty-eight places of pilgrimage within my own heart, where I now take my cleansing bath. ||3||

973 : 4386
I do not pay attention to anyone praising me, or calling me good and nice.

973 : 4387
Says Naam Dayv, my consciousness is imbued with the Lord; I am absorbed in the profound state of Samaadhi. ||4||2||

973 : 4388
When there was no mother and no father, no karma and no human body,

973 : 4389
when I was not and you were not, then who came from where? ||1||

973 : 4390
O Lord, no one belongs to anyone else.

973 : 4391
We are like birds perched on a tree. ||1||Pause||

973 : 4392
When there was no moon and no sun, then water and air were blended together.

973 : 4393
When there were no Shaastras and no Vedas, then where did karma come from? ||2||

973 : 4394
Control of the breath and positioning of the tongue, focusing at the third eye and wearing malas of tulsi beads, are all obtained through Guru's Grace.

973 : 4395
Naam Dayv prays, this is the supreme essence of reality; the True Guru has inspired this realization. ||3||3||

RAAMKALEE, SECOND HOUSE:

973 : 4397
Someone may practice austerities at Benares, or die upside-down at a sacred shrine ofpilgrimage, or burn his body in fire, or rejuvenate his body to life almost forever;

973 : 4398
he may perform the horse-sacrifice ceremony, or give donations of gold covered over, but none of these is equal to the worship of the Lord's Name. ||1||

973 : 4399
O hypocrite, renounce and abandon your hypocrisy; do not practice deception.

973 : 4400
Constantly, continually, chant the Name of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

973 : 4401
Someone may go to the Ganges or the Godaavari, or to the Kumbha festival, or bathe at Kaydaar Naat'h, or make donations of thousands of cows at Gomti;

973 : 4402
he may make millions of pilgrimages to sacred shrines, or freeze his body in the Himalayas; still, none of these is equal to the worship of the Lord's Name. ||2||

973 : 4403
Someone may give away horses and elephants, or women on their beds, or land; he may give such gifts over and over again.

973 : 4404
He may purify his soul, and give away in charity his body weight in gold; none of these is equal to the worship of the Lord's Name. ||3||

973 : 4405
Do not harbor anger in your mind, or blame the Messenger of Death; instead, realize the immaculate state of Nirvaanaa.

973 : 4406
My Sovereign Lord King is Raam Chandra, the Son of the King Dasrat'h; prays Naam Dayv, I drink in the Ambrosial Nectar. ||4||4||

973 : 4407
Raamkalee, The Word Of Ravi Daas Jee:

973 : 4408
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

973 : 4409
They read and reflect upon all the Names of God; they listen, but they do not see the Lord, the embodiment of love and intuition.

973 : 4410
How can iron be transformed into gold, unless it touches the Philosopher's Stone? ||1||
