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

26 : 499
I serve my True Guru with single-minded devotion, and lovingly focus my consciousness on Him.

26 : 500
The True Guru is the mind's desire and the sacred shrine of pilgrimage, for those unto whom He has given this understanding.

26 : 503
O my mind, drink in the Sublime Essence of the Lord, and your thirst shall be quenched.

Those Gurmukhs who have tasted it remain intuitively absorbed in the Lord. ||1||Pause||

26 : 505
Those who serve the True Guru obtain the Treasure of the Naam.

Deep within, they are drenched with the Essence of the Lord, and the egotistical pride of the mind is subdued.

26 : 508
Their minds become pure, and they remain immersed in the Lord; they are honored in His Court. ||2||

People wear all sorts of costumes and wander all around, but in their hearts and minds, they practice deception.

26 : 519
They do not attain the Mansion of the Lord's Presence, and after death, they sink into manure. ||1||

26 : 520
O mind, remain detached in the midst of your household.

26 : 521
Practicing truth, self-discipline and good deeds, the Gurmukh is enlightened. ||1||Pause||

26 : 526
Those who wear the Necklace of the Lord around their necks, and focus their consciousness on the Guru's Feet

26 : 527
-wealth and supernatural spiritual powers follow them, but they do not care for such things at all. ||4||

Whatever pleases God's Will comes to pass. Nothing else can be done.

26 : 529
Servant Nanak lives by chanting the Naam. O Lord, please give it to me, in Your Natural Way. ||5||2||35||
