Raag Basant - Part 005

1172 : 182
Those who are blessed with the glory of the Lord's Throne - those Gurmukhs are renowned as supreme.

1172 : 183
Touching the philosopher's stone, they themselves becomes the philosopher's stone; they become the companions of the Lord, the Guru. ||4||4||12||

1172 : 184
Basant, Third Mehl, First House, Du-Tukas:

1172 : 185
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1172 : 186
Throughout the months and the seasons, the Lord is always in bloom.

1172 : 187
He rejuvenates all beings and creatures.

1172 : 188
What can I say? I am just a worm.

1172 : 189
No one has found Your beginning or Your end, O Lord. ||1||

1172 : 190
Those who serve You, Lord,

1172 : 191
obtain the greatest peace; their souls are so divine. ||1||Pause||

1172 : 192
If the Lord is merciful, then the mortal is allowed to serve Him.

1172 : 193
By Guru's Grace, he remains dead while yet alive.

1172 : 194
Night and day, he chants the True Name;

1172 : 195
in this way, he crosses over the treacherous world-ocean. ||2||

1172 : 196
The Creator created both poison and nectar.

1172 : 197
He attached these two fruits to the world-plant.

1172 : 198
The Creator Himself is the Doer, the Cause of all.

1172 : 199
He feeds all as He pleases. ||3||

1172 : 200
O Nanak, when He casts His Glance of Grace,

1172 : 201
He Himself bestows His Ambrosial Naam.

1172 : 202
Thus, the desire for sin and corruption is ended.

1172 : 203
The Lord Himself carries out His Own Will. ||4||1||

1172 : 204
Basant, Third Mehl:

1172 : 205
Those who are attuned to the True Lord's Name are happy and exalted.

1172 : 206
Take pity on me, O God, Merciful to the meek.

1172 : 207
Without Him, I have no other at all.

Continued...

1172 : 208
As it pleases His Will, He keeps me. ||1||

1172 : 209
The Guru, the Lord, is pleasing to my mind.

1172 : 210
I cannot even survive, without the Blessed Vision of His Darshan. But I shall easily unite with the Guru, if He unites me in His Union. ||1||Pause||

1172 : 211
The greedy mind is enticed by greed.

1172 : 212
Forgetting the Lord, it regrets and repents in the end.

1172 : 213
The separated ones are reunited, when they are inspired to serve the Guru.

1172 : 214
They are blessed with the Lord's Name - such is the destiny written on their foreheads. ||2||

1172 : 215
This body is built of air and water.

1172 : 216
The body is afflicted with the terribly painful illness of egotism.

1172 : 217
The Gurmukh has the Medicine: singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord's Name.

1172 : 218
Granting His Grace, the Guru has cured the illness. ||3||

1172 : 219
The four evils are the four rivers of fire flowing through the body.

1172 : 220
It is burning in desire, and burning in egotism.

1172 : 221
Those whom the Guru protects and saves are very fortunate.

1172 : 222
Servant Nanak enshrines the Ambrosial Name of the Lord in his heart. ||4||2||

1172 : 223
Basant, Third Mehl:

1172 : 224
One who serves the Lord is the Lord's person.

1172 : 225
He dwells in intuitive peace, and never suffers in sorrow.

1172 : 226
The self-willed manmukhs are dead; the Lord is not within their minds.

1172 : 227
They die and die again and again, and are reincarnated, only to die once more. ||1||

1172 : 228
They alone are alive, whose minds are filled with the Lord.

1172 : 229
They contemplate the True Lord, and are absorbed in the True Lord. ||1||Pause||

1172 : 230
Those who do not serve the Lord are far away from the Lord.

1172 : 231
They wander in foreign lands, with dust thrown on their heads.

1172 : 232
The Lord Himself enjoins His humble servants to serve Him.

1172 : 233
They live in peace forever, and have no greed at all. ||2||
