Like beasts, they consume all sorts of tasty treats.

190 : 1858
With the rope of emotional attachment, they are bound and gagged like thieves. ||1||

190 : 1859
Their bodies are corpses, without the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

190 : 1860
They come and go in reincarnation, and are destroyed by pain. ||1||Pause||

190 : 1861
They wear all sorts of beautiful robes,

190 : 1862
but they are still just scarecrows in the field, frightening away the birds. ||2||

190 : 1863
All bodies are of some use,

190 : 1864
but those who do not meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, are totally useless. ||3||

190 : 1865
Says Nanak, those unto whom the Lord becomes Merciful,

190 : 1866
join the Saadh Sangat, and meditate on the Lord of the Universe. ||4||55||124||
