The Righteous Judge of Dharma serves them; blessed is the Lord who adorns them. ||2||

39 : 997
One who eliminates mental wickedness from within the mind, and casts out emotional attachment and egotistical pride,

39 : 998
comes to recognize the All-pervading Soul, and is intuitively absorbed into the Naam.

39 : 999
Without the True Guru, the self-willed manmukhs do not find liberation; they wander around like lunatics.

39 : 1000
They do not contemplate the Shabad; engrossed in corruption, they utter only empty words. ||3||

39 : 1001
He Himself is everything; there is no other at all.

39 : 1002
I speak just as He makes me speak, when He Himself makes me speak.

39 : 1003
The Word of the Gurmukh is God Himself. Through the Shabad, we merge in Him.

39 : 1004
O Nanak, remember the Naam; serving Him, peace is obtained. ||4||30||63||

39 : 1005
Siree Raag, Third Mehl:

39 : 1006
The world is polluted with the filth of egotism, suffering in pain. This filth sticks to them because of their love of duality.

39 : 1007
This filth of egotism cannot be washed away, even by taking cleansing baths at hundreds of sacred shrines.

39 : 1008
Performing all sorts of rituals, people are smeared with twice as much filth.

39 : 1009
This filth is not removed by studying. Go ahead, and ask the wise ones. ||1||

39 : 1010
O my mind, coming to the Sanctuary of the Guru, you shall become immaculate and pure.

39 : 1011
The self-willed manmukhs have grown weary of chanting the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, but their filth cannot be removed. ||1||Pause||

39 : 1012
With a polluted mind, devotional service cannot be performed, and the Naam, the Name of the Lord, cannot be obtained.

39 : 1013
The filthy, self-willed manmukhs die in filth, and they depart in disgrace.

39 : 1014
By Guru's Grace, the Lord comes to abide in the mind, and the filth of egotism is dispelled.

39 : 1015
Like a lamp lit in the darkness, the spiritual wisdom of the Guru dispels ignorance. ||2||

39 : 1016
"I have done this, and I will do that"-I am an idiotic fool for saying this!

39 : 1017
I have forgotten the Doer of all; I am caught in the love of duality.

39 : 1018
There is no pain as great as the pain of Maya; it drives people to wander all around the world, until they become exhausted.

39 : 1019
Through the Guru's Teachings, peace is found, with the True Name enshrined in the heart. ||3||

39 : 1020
I am a sacrifice to those who meet and merge with the Lord.

39 : 1021
This mind is attuned to devotional worship; through the True Word of Gurbani, it finds its own home.

39 : 1022
With the mind so imbued, and the tongue imbued as well, sing the Glorious Praises of the True Lord.

39 : 1023
O Nanak, never forget the Naam; immerse yourself in the True One. ||4||31||64||

39 : 1024
Siree Raag, Fourth Mehl, First House:

39 : 1025
Within my mind and body is the intense pain of separation; how can my Beloved come to meet me in my home?

39 : 1026
When I see my God, seeing God Himself, my pain is taken away.

39 : 1027
I go and ask my friends, "How can I meet and merge with God?"||1||

39 : 1028
O my True Guru, without You I have no other at all.

39 : 1029
I am foolish and ignorant; I seek Your Sanctuary. Please be Merciful and unite me with the Lord. ||1||Pause||

39 : 1030
The True Guru is the Giver of the Name of the Lord. God Himself causes us to meet Him.

39 : 1031
The True Guru understands the Lord God. There is no other as Great as the Guru.

39 : 1032
I have come and collapsed in the Guru's Sanctuary. In His Kindness, He has united me with God. ||2||

39 : 1033
No one has found Him by stubborn-mindedness. All have grown weary of the effort.
