Raag Wadahans - Part 023

579 : 826
This dear soul is driven off, when the pre-ordained Order is received, and all the relatives cry out in mourning.

579 : 827
The body and the swan-soul are separated, when one's days are past and done, O my mother.

579 : 828
As is one's pre-ordained Destiny, so does one receive, according to one's past actions.

579 : 829
Blessed is the Creator, the True King, who has linked the whole world to its tasks. ||1||

579 : 830
Meditate in remembrance on the Lord and Master, O my Siblings of Destiny; everyone has to pass this way.

579 : 831
These false entanglements last for only a few days; then, one must surely move on to the world hereafter.

579 : 832
He must surely move on to the world hereafter, like a guest; so why does he indulge in ego?

579 : 833
Chant the Name of the Lord; serving Him, you shall obtain peace in His Court.

579 : 834
In the world hereafter, no one's commands will be obeyed. According to their actions, each and every person proceeds.

579 : 835
Meditate in remembrance on the Lord and Master, O my Siblings of Destiny; everyone has to pass this way. ||2||

579 : 836
Whatever pleases the Almighty Lord, that alone comes to pass; this world is an opportunity to please Him.

579 : 837
The True Creator Lord is pervading and permeating the water, the land and the air.

579 : 838
The True Creator Lord is invisible and infinite; His limits cannot be found.

579 : 839
Fruitful is the coming of those, who meditate single-mindedly on Him.

579 : 840
He destroys, and having destroyed, He creates; by His Order, He adorns us.

579 : 841
Whatever pleases the Almighty Lord, that alone comes to pass; this world is an opportunity to please Him. ||3||

579 : 842
Nanak: he alone truly weeps, O Baba, who weeps in the Lord's Love.

579 : 843
One who weeps for the sake of worldly objects, O Baba, weeps totally in vain.

Continued...

579 : 844
This weeping is all in vain; the world forgets the Lord, and weeps for the sake of Maya.

579 : 845
He does not distinguish between good and evil, and wastes away this life in vain.

579 : 846
Everyone who comes here, shall have to leave; to act in ego is false.

579 : 847
Nanak: he alone truly weeps, O Baba, who weeps in the Lord's Love. ||4||1||

579 : 848
Wadahans, First Mehl:

579 : 849
Come, O my companions - let us meet together and dwell upon the True Name.

579 : 850
Let us weep over the body's separation from the Lord and Master; let us remember Him in contemplation.

579 : 851
Let us remember the Lord and Master in contemplation, and keep a watchful eye on the Path. We shall have to go there as well.

579 : 852
He who has created, also destroys; whatever happens is by His Will.

579 : 853
Whatever He has done, has come to pass; how can we command Him?

579 : 854
Come, O my companions - let us meet together and dwell upon the True Name. ||1||

579 : 855
Death would not be called bad, O people, if one knew how to truly die.

579 : 856
Serve your Almighty Lord and Master, and your path in the world hereafter will be easy.

579 : 857
Take this easy path, and you shall obtain the fruits of your rewards, and receive honor in the world hereafter.

579 : 858
Go there with your offering, and you shall merge in the True Lord; your honor shall be confirmed.

579 : 859
You shall obtain a place in the Mansion of the Lord Master's Presence; being pleasing to Him, you shall enjoy the pleasures of His Love.

579 : 860
Death would not be called bad, O people, if one knew how to truly die. ||2||

579 : 861
The death of brave heroes is blessed, if it is approved by God.
