Raag Soohee - Part 001

728 : 1
One Universal Creator God. Truth Is The Name. Creative Being Personified. No Fear. No Hatred. Image Of The Undying. Beyond Birth. Self-Existent. By Guru's Grace:

728 : 2
Raag Soohee, First Mehl, Chau-Padas, First House:

728 : 3
Wash the vessel, sit down and anoint it with fragrance; then, go out and get the milk.

728 : 4
Add the rennet of clear consciousness to the milk of good deeds, and then, free of desire, let it curdle. ||1||

728 : 5
Chant the Name of the One Lord.

728 : 6
All other actions are fruitless. ||1||Pause||

728 : 7
Let your mind be the handles, and then churn it, without sleeping.

728 : 8
If you chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord ,with your tongue, then the curd will be churned. In this way, the Ambrosial Nectar is obtained. ||2||

728 : 9
Wash your mind in the pool of Truth, and let it be the vessel of the Lord; let this be your offering to please Him.

728 : 10
That humble servant who dedicates and offers his life, and who serves in this way, remains absorbed in his Lord and Master. ||3||

728 : 11
The speakers speak and speak and speak, and then they depart. There is no other to compare to You.

728 : 12
Servant Nanak, lacking devotion, humbly prays: may I sing the Praises of the True Lord. ||4||1||

728 : 14
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

728 : 15
Deep within the self, the Lord abides; do not go outside looking for Him.

728 : 16
You have renounced the Ambrosial Nectar - why are you eating poison? ||1||

728 : 17
Meditate on such spiritual wisdom, O my mind,

728 : 18
and become the slave of the True Lord. ||1||Pause||

728 : 19
Everyone speaks of wisdom and meditation;

728 : 20
but bound in bondage, the whole world is wandering around in confusion. ||2||

728 : 21
One who serves the Lord is His servant.

728 : 22
The Lord is pervading and permeating the water, the land, and the sky. ||3||

728 : 23
I am not good; no one is bad.

728 : 24
Prays Nanak, He alone saves us! ||4||1||2||
