Raag Maajh - Part 021

114 : 856
Night and day, they remain in the Fear of God; conquering their fears, their doubts are dispelled. ||5||

114 : 857
Dispelling their doubts, they find a lasting peace.

114 : 858
By Guru's Grace, the supreme status is attained.

114 : 859
Deep within, they are pure, and their words are pure as well; intuitively, they sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||6||

114 : 860
They recite the Simritees, the Shaastras and the Vedas,

114 : 861
but deluded by doubt, they do not understand the essence of reality.

114 : 862
Without serving the True Guru, they find no peace; they earn only pain and misery. ||7||

114 : 863
The Lord Himself acts; unto whom should we complain?

114 : 864
How can anyone complain that the Lord has made a mistake?

114 : 865
O Nanak, the Lord Himself does, and causes things to be done; chanting the Naam, we are absorbed in the Naam. ||8||7||8||

114 : 866
Maajh, Third Mehl:

114 : 867
He Himself imbues us with His Love, with effortless ease.

114 : 868
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, we are dyed in the color of the Lord's Love.

114 : 869
This mind and body are so imbued, and this tongue is dyed in the deep crimson color of the poppy. Through the Love and the Fear of God, we are dyed in this color. ||1||

114 : 870
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, to those who enshrine the Fearless Lord within their minds.

114 : 871
By Guru's Grace, I meditate on the Fearless Lord; the Shabad has carried me across the poisonous world-ocean. ||1||Pause||

114 : 872
The idiotic self-willed manmukhs try to be clever,

114 : 873
but in spite of their bathing and washing, they shall not be acceptable.

114 : 874
As they came, so shall they go, regretting the mistakes they made. ||2||

114 : 875
The blind, self-willed manmukhs do not understand anything;

114 : 876
death was pre-ordained for them when they came into the world, but they do not understand.

114 : 877
The self-willed manmukhs may practice religious rituals, but they do not obtain the Name; without the Name, they lose this life in vain. ||3||

114 : 880
So, night and day, listen to the Word of the Guru's Bani, and the Shabad. Let yourself be colored by this love. ||4||

114 : 881
The tongue, imbued with the Lord's Essence, delights in His Love.

114 : 882
My mind and body are enticed by the Lord's Sublime Love.

114 : 883
I have easily obtained my Darling Beloved; I am intuitively absorbed in celestial peace. ||5||

Those who have the Lord's Love within, sing His Glorious Praises;

114 : 885

114 : 886
I am forever a sacrifice to those who dedicate their consciousness to the Guru's Service. ||6||

The True Lord is pleased with Truth, and only Truth.

By Guru's Grace, one's inner being is deeply imbued with His Love.

114 : 889
Sitting in that blessed place, sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, who Himself inspires us to accept His Truth. ||7||

114 : 890
That one, upon whom the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, obtains it.

114 : 891
By Guru's Grace, egotism departs.

114 : 892
O Nanak, that one, within whose mind the Name dwells, is honored in the True Court. ||8||8||9||
