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

219 : 3138
Raag Gauree, Ninth Mehl

219 : 3139
: Holy Saadhus: forsake the pride of your mind.

219 : 3140
Sexual desire, anger and the company of evil people - run away from them, day and night. ||1||Pause||

219 : 3141
One who knows that pain and pleasure are both the same, and honor and dishonor as well,

219 : 3142
who remains detached from joy and sorrow, realizes the true essence in the world. ||1||

219 : 3143
Renounce both praise and blame; seek instead the state of Nirvaanaa.

219 : 3144
O servant Nanak, this is such a difficult game; only a few Gurmukhs understand it! ||2||1||

219 : 3145
Gauree, Ninth Mehl:

219 : 3146
Holy Saadhus: the Lord fashioned the creation.

219 : 3147
One person passes away, and another thinks that he will live forever - this is a wonder beyond understanding! ||1||Pause||

219 : 3148
The mortal beings are held in the power of sexual desire, anger and emotional attachment; they have forgotten the Lord, the Immortal Form.

219 : 3149
The body is false, but they believe it to be true; it is like a dream in the night. ||1||

219 : 3150
Whatever is seen, shall all pass away, like the shadow of a cloud.

219 : 3151
O servant Nanak, one who knows the world to be unreal, dwells in the Sanctuary of the Lord. ||2||2||

219 : 3152
Gauree, Ninth Mehl:

219 : 3153
The Praise of the Lord does not come to dwell in the minds of the mortal beings.

219 : 3154
Day and night, they remain engrossed in Maya. Tell me, how can they sing God's Glories? ||1||Pause||

219 : 3155
In this way, they bind themselves to children, friends, Maya and possessiveness.

219 : 3156
Like the deer's delusion, this world is false; and yet, beholding it, they chase after it. ||1||

219 : 3157
Our Lord and Master is the source of pleasures and liberation; and yet, the fool forgets Him.

219 : 3158
O servant Nanak, among millions, there is scarcely anyone who attains the Lord's meditation. ||2||3||

219 : 3159
Gauree, Ninth Mehl:

219 : 3160
Holy Saadhus: this mind cannot be restrained.

219 : 3161
Fickle desires dwell with it, and so it cannot remain steady. ||1||Pause||

219 : 3162
The heart is filled with anger and violence, which cause all sense to be forgotten.

219 : 3163
The jewel of spiritual wisdom has been taken away from everyone; nothing can withstand it. ||1||

219 : 3164
The Yogis have tried everything and failed; the virtuous have grown weary of singing God's Glories.

219 : 3165
O servant Nanak, when the Lord becomes merciful, then every effort is successful. ||2||4||

219 : 3166
Gauree, Ninth Mehl:

219 : 3167
Holy Saadhus: sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe.

219 : 3168
You have obtained the priceless jewel of this human life; why are you uselessly wasting it? ||1||Pause||

219 : 3169
He is the Purifier of sinners, the Friend of the poor. Come, and enter the Lord's Sanctuary.

219 : 3170
Remembering Him, the elephant's fear was removed; so why do you forget Him? ||1||

219 : 3171
Renounce your egotistical pride and your emotional attachment to Maya; focus your consciousness on the Lord's meditation.

219 : 3172
Says Nanak, this is the path to liberation. Become Gurmukh, and attain it. ||2||5||

219 : 3173
Gauree, Ninth Mehl:

219 : 3174
O mother, if only someone would instruct my wayward mind.
