Siree Raag, Third Mehl:

69 : 2181
Meeting with the True Guru, you shall not have to go through the cycle of reincarnation again; the pains of birth and death will be taken away.

69 : 2182
Through the Perfect Word of the Shabad, all understanding is obtained; remain absorbed in the Name of the Lord. ||1||

69 : 2183
O my mind, focus your consciousness on the True Guru.

69 : 2184
The Immaculate Naam itself, ever-fresh, comes to abide within the mind. ||1||Pause||

69 : 2185
O Dear Lord, please protect and preserve me in Your Sanctuary. As You keep me, so do I remain.

69 : 2186
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, the Gurmukh remains dead while yet alive, and swims across the terrifying world-ocean. ||2||

69 : 2187
By great good fortune, the Name is obtained. Following the Guru's Teachings, through the Shabad, you shall be exalted.

69 : 2188
God, the Creator Himself, dwells within the mind; remain absorbed in the state of intuitive balance. ||3||

69 : 2189
Some are self-willed manmukhs; they do not love the Word of the Shabad. Bound in chains, they wander lost in reincarnation.

69 : 2190
Through 8.4 million lifetimes, they wander over and over again; they waste away their lives in vain. ||4||

69 : 2191
In the minds of the devotees there is bliss; they are attuned to the Love of the True Word of the Shabad.

69 : 2192
Night and day, they constantly sing the Glories of the Immaculate Lord; with intuitive ease, they are absorbed into the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||5||

69 : 2193
The Gurmukhs speak the Ambrosial Bani; they recognize the Lord, the Supreme Soul in all.

69 : 2194
They serve the One; they worship and adore the One. The Gurmukhs speak the Unspoken Speech. ||6||

69 : 2195
The Gurmukhs serve their True Lord and Master, who comes to dwell in the mind.

69 : 2196
They are forever attuned to the Love of the True One, who bestows His Mercy and unites them with Himself. ||7||

69 : 2197
He Himself does, and He Himself causes others to do; He wakes some from their sleep.

69 : 2198
He Himself unites us in Union; Nanak is absorbed in the Shabad. ||8||7||24||

Siree Raag, Third Mehl:

69 : 2200
Serving the True Guru, the mind becomes immaculate, and the body becomes pure.

69 : 2201
The mind obtains bliss and eternal peace, meeting with the Deep and Profound Lord.

69 : 2202
Sitting in the Sangat, the True Congregation, the mind is comforted and consoled by the True Name. ||1||

69 : 2203
O mind, serve the True Guru without hesitation.

69 : 2204
Serving the True Guru, the Lord abides within the mind, and no trace of filth shall attach itself to you. ||1||Pause||

69 : 2205
From the True Word of the Shabad comes honor. True is the Name of the True One.

69 : 2206
I am a sacrifice to those who conquer their ego and recognize the Lord.

69 : 2207
The self-willed manmukhs do not know the True One; they find no shelter, and no place of rest anywhere. ||2||

69 : 2208
Those who take the Truth as their food and the Truth as their clothing, have their home in the True One.

69 : 2209
They constantly praise the True One, and in the True Word of the Shabad they have their dwelling.

69 : 2210
They recognize the Lord, the Supreme Soul in all, and through the Guru's Teachings they dwell in the home of their own inner self. ||3||

69 : 2211
They see the Truth, and they speak the Truth; their bodies and minds are True.

69 : 2212
True are their teachings, and True are their instructions; True are the reputations of the true ones.

69 : 2213
Those who have forgotten the True One are miserable-they depart weeping and wailing. ||4||

69 : 2214
Those who have not served the True Guru-why did they even bother to come into the world?

69 : 2215
They are bound and gagged and beaten at Death's door, but no one hears their shrieks and cries.

69 : 2216
They waste their lives uselessly; they die and are reincarnated over and over again. ||5||
