Raag Maajh - Part 030

123 : 1247
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, to those who hear and enshrine the Naam within their minds.

123 : 1248
The Dear Lord, the True One, the Highest of the High, subdues their ego and blends them with Himself. ||1||Pause||

123 : 1249
True is the Dear Lord, and True is His Name.

123 : 1250
By Guru's Grace, some merge with Him.

123 : 1251
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, those who merge with the Lord shall not be separated from Him again. They merge with intuitive ease into the True Lord. ||2||

123 : 1252
There is nothing beyond You;

123 : 1253
You are the One who does, sees, and knows.

123 : 1254
The Creator Himself acts, and inspires others to act. Through the Guru's Teachings, He blends us into Himself. ||3||

123 : 1255
The virtuous soul-bride finds the Lord;

123 : 1256
she decorates herself with the Love and the Fear of God.

123 : 1257
She who serves the True Guru is forever a happy soul-bride. She is absorbed in the true teachings. ||4||

123 : 1258
Those who forget the Word of the Shabad have no home and no place of rest.

123 : 1259
They are deluded by doubt, like a crow in a deserted house.

123 : 1260
They forfeit both this world and the next, and they pass their lives suffering in pain and misery. ||5||

123 : 1261
Writing on and on endlessly, they run out of paper and ink.

123 : 1262
Through the love with duality, no one has found peace.

123 : 1263
They write falsehood, and they practice falsehood; they are burnt to ashes by focusing their consciousness on falsehood. ||6||

123 : 1264
The Gurmukhs write and reflect on Truth, and only Truth.

123 : 1265
The true ones find the gate of salvation.

123 : 1266
True is their paper, pen and ink; writing Truth, they are absorbed in the True One. ||7||

123 : 1267
My God sits deep within the self; He watches over us.

123 : 1268
Those who meet the Lord, by Guru's Grace, are acceptable.

123 : 1269
O Nanak, glorious greatness is received through the Naam, which is obtained through the Perfect Guru. ||8||22||23||

123 : 1270
Maajh, Third Mehl:

123 : 1271
The Divine Light of the Supreme Soul shines forth from the Guru.

123 : 1272
The filth stuck to the ego is removed through the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

123 : 1273
One who is imbued with devotional worship to the Lord night and day becomes pure. Worshipping the Lord, He is obtained. ||1||

123 : 1274
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, to those who themselves worship the Lord, and inspire others to worship Him as well.

123 : 1275
I humbly bow to those devotees who chant the Glorious Praises of the Lord, night and day. ||1||Pause||

123 : 1276
The Creator Lord Himself is the Doer of deeds.

123 : 1277
As He pleases, He applies us to our tasks.

123 : 1278
Through perfect destiny, we serve the Guru; serving the Guru, peace is found. ||2||

123 : 1279
Those who die, and remain dead while yet alive, obtain it.

123 : 1280
By Guru's Grace, they enshrine the Lord within their minds.

123 : 1281
Enshrining the Lord within their minds, they are liberated forever. With intuitive ease, they merge into the Lord. ||3||

123 : 1282
They perform all sorts of rituals, but they do not obtain liberation through them.

123 : 1283
They wander around the countryside, and in love with duality, they are ruined.

123 : 1284
The deceitful lose their lives in vain; without the Word of the Shabad, they obtain only misery. ||4||

123 : 1285
Those who restrain their wandering mind, keeping it steady and stable,

123 : 1286
obtain the supreme status, by Guru's Grace.

123 : 1287
The True Guru Himself unites us in Union with the Lord. Meeting the Beloved, peace is obtained. ||5||
