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

1276 : 851
If it is in his karma, then he finds the True Guru; without such karma, He cannot be found.

1276 : 852
He meets the True Guru, and he is transformed into gold, if it is the Lord's Will. ||1||

1276 : 853
O my mind, focus your consciousness on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.

1276 : 854
The Lord is found through the True Guru, and then he remains merged with the True Lord. ||1||Pause||

The world is unconscious, like a passing show; the mortal departs, having lost his capital.

1276 : 862
The profit of the Lord is obtained in the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation; by good karma, it is found. ||5||

1276 : 863
Without the True Guru, no one finds it; see this in your mind, and consider this in your heart.

1276 : 866
O Dear Lord, please be kind and lead me to meet the Guru, that I may find the Door of Salvation. ||7||

1276 : 867
The pre-ordained destiny inscribed on the mortal's forehead by our Lord and Master cannot be erased.

1276 : 869
Malaar, Third Mehl:

1276 : 870
The world is involved with the words of the Vedas, thinking about the three gunas - the three dispositions.

1276 : 871
Without the Name, it suffers punishment by the Messenger of Death; it comes and goes in reincarnation, over and over again.

1276 : 872
Meeting with the True Guru, the world is liberated, and finds the Door of Salvation. ||1||

O mortal, immerse yourself in service to the True Guru.

1276 : 877
The Lord, by His Own Will, leads the mortal to meet the True Guru, the Embellisher of all his lives. ||2||

1276 : 879
Waaho! Waaho! Praise God as Great! No one else is as Great as He.

1276 : 880
