Shalok, Ninth Mehl - Part 001

1426 : 1
Those whom He saves, meditate in remembrance on the Creator Lord. ||15||

1426 : 2
Forsake duality and the ways of evil; focus your consciousness on the One Lord.

1426 : 3
In the love of duality, O Nanak, the mortals are being washed downstream. ||16||

1426 : 4
In the markets and bazaars of the three qualities, the merchants make their deals.

1426 : 5
Those who load the true merchandise are the true traders. ||17||

1426 : 6
Those who do not know the way of love are foolish; they wander lost and confused.

1426 : 7
O Nanak, forgetting the Lord, they fall into the deep, dark pit of hell. ||18||

1426 : 8
In his mind, the mortal does not forget Maya; he begs for more and more wealth.

1426 : 9
That God does not even come into his consciousness; O Nanak, it is not in his karma. ||19||

1426 : 10
The mortal does not run out of capital, as long as the Lord Himself is merciful.

1426 : 11
The Word of the Shabad is Guru Nanak's inexhaustible treasure; this wealth and capital never runs out, no matter how much it is spent and consumed. ||20||

1426 : 12
If I could find wings for sale, I would buy them with an equal weight of my flesh.

1426 : 13
I would attach them to my body, and seek out and find my Friend. ||21||

1426 : 14
My Friend is the True Supreme King, the King over the heads of kings.

1426 : 15
Sitting by His side, we are exalted and beautified; He is the Support of all. ||22||

1426 : 16
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1426 : 17
Shalok, Ninth Mehl:

1426 : 18
If you do not sing the Praises of the Lord, your life is rendered useless.

1426 : 19
Says Nanak, meditate, vibrate upon the Lord; immerse your mind in Him, like the fish in the water. ||1||

1426 : 20
Why are you engrossed in sin and corruption? You are not detached, even for a moment!

1426 : 21
Says Nanak, meditate, vibrate upon the Lord, and you shall not be caught in the noose of death. ||2||

1426 : 22
Your youth has passed away like this, and old age has overtaken your body.

1426 : 23
Says Nanak, meditate, vibrate upon the Lord; your life is fleeting away! ||3||

1426 : 24
You have become old, and you do not understand that death is overtaking you.

1426 : 25
Says Nanak, you are insane! Why do you not remember and meditate on God? ||4||

1426 : 26
Your wealth, spouse, and all the possessions which you claim as your own

1426 : 27
- none of these shall go along with you in the end. O Nanak, know this as true. ||5||

1426 : 28
He is the Saving Grace of sinners, the Destroyer of fear, the Master of the masterless.

1426 : 29
Says Nanak, realize and know Him, who is always with you. ||6||

1426 : 30
He has given you your body and wealth, but you are not in love with Him.

1426 : 31
Says Nanak, you are insane! Why do you now shake and tremble so helplessly? ||7||

1426 : 32
He has given you your body, wealth, property, peace and beautiful mansions.

1426 : 33
Says Nanak, listen, mind: why don't you remember the Lord in meditation? ||8||

1426 : 34
The Lord is the Giver of all peace and comfort. There is no other at all.

1426 : 35
Says Nanak, listen, mind: meditating in remembrance on Him, salvation is attained. ||9||
