Siree Raag - Part 008

21 : 273
Know the state of your inner being; meet with the Guru and get rid of your skepticism.

21 : 274
To reach your True Home after you die, you must conquer death while you are still alive.

21 : 275
The beautiful, Unstruck Sound of the Shabad is obtained, contemplating the Guru. ||2||

21 : 276
The Unstruck Melody of Gurbani is obtained, and egotism is eliminated.

21 : 277
I am forever a sacrifice to those who serve their True Guru.

21 : 278
They are dressed in robes of honor in the Court of the Lord; the Name of the Lord is on their lips. ||3||

21 : 279
Wherever I look, I see the Lord pervading there, in the union of Shiva and Shakti, of consciousness and matter.

21 : 280
The three qualities hold the body in bondage; whoever comes into the world is subject to their play.

21 : 281
Those who separate themselves from the Lord wander lost in misery. The self-willed manmukhs do not attain union with Him. ||4||

21 : 282
If the mind becomes balanced and detached, and comes to dwell in its own true home, imbued with the Fear of God,

21 : 283
then it enjoys the essence of supreme spiritual wisdom; it shall never feel hunger again.

21 : 284
O Nanak, conquer and subdue this mind; meet with the Lord, and you shall never again suffer in pain. ||5||18||

21 : 285
Siree Raag, First Mehl:

21 : 286
This foolish mind is greedy; through greed, it becomes even more attached to greed.

21 : 287
The evil-minded shaaktas, the faithless cynics, are not attuned to the Shabad; they come and go in reincarnation.

21 : 288
One who meets with the Holy True Guru finds the Treasure of Excellence. ||1||

21 : 289
O mind, renounce your egotistical pride.

21 : 290
Serve the Lord, the Guru, the Sacred Pool, and you shall be honored in the Court of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

21 : 291
Chant the Name of the Lord day and night; become Gurmukh, and know the Wealth of the Lord.

21 : 292
All comforts and peace, and the Essence of the Lord, are enjoyed by acquiring spiritual wisdom in the Society of the Saints.

21 : 293
Day and night, continually serve the Lord God; the True Guru has given the Naam. ||2||

21 : 294
Those who practice falsehood are dogs; those who slander the Guru shall burn in their own fire.

21 : 295
They wander lost and confused, deceived by doubt, suffering in terrible pain. The Messenger of Death shall beat them to a pulp.

21 : 296
The self-willed manmukhs find no peace, while the Gurmukhs are wondrously joyful. ||3||

21 : 297
In this world, people are engrossed in false pursuits, but in the world hereafter, only the account of your true actions is accepted.

21 : 298
The Guru serves the Lord, His Intimate Friend. The Guru's actions are supremely exalted.

21 : 299
O Nanak, never forget the Naam, the Name of the Lord; the True Lord shall bless you with His Mark of Grace. ||4||19||

21 : 300
Siree Raag, First Mehl:

21 : 301
Forgetting the Beloved, even for a moment, the mind is afflicted with terrible diseases.

21 : 302
How can honor be attained in His Court, if the Lord does not dwell in the mind?

21 : 303
Meeting with the Guru, peace is found. The fire is extinguished in His Glorious Praises. ||1||

21 : 304
O mind, enshrine the Praises of the Lord, day and night.

21 : 305
One who does not forget the Naam, for a moment or even an instant-how rare is such a person in this world! ||1||Pause||

21 : 306
When one's light merges into the Light, and one's intuitive consciousness is joined with the Intuitive Consciousness,

21 : 307
then one's cruel and violent instincts and egotism depart, and skepticism and sorrow are taken away.

21 : 308
The Lord abides within the mind of the Gurmukh, who merges in the Lord's Union, through the Guru. ||2||

21 : 309
If I surrender my body like a bride, the Enjoyer will enjoy me.

21 : 310
Do not make love with one who is just a passing show.

21 : 311
The Gurmukh is ravished like the pure and happy bride on the Bed of God, her Husband. ||3||
