That inexhaustible wealth of Truth is now in my lap. ||4||

Whatever the Creator does, comes to pass. ||4||

414 : 3178
He demolishes, and He builds; by His Order, he merges us into Himself.

414 : 3179

414 : 3182
In the prime of youth, he is drowned in his pride.

Without the Name, what can the fool obtain? ||6||

414 : 3184
He does not know the One who blesses him with nourishment and wealth.

414 : 3186
The noose of death is around the neck of that crazy madman. ||7||

414 : 3187
I saw the world drowning, and I ran away in fear.

414 : 3188
How very fortunate are those who have been saved by the True Guru.

414 : 3189
O Nanak, they are attached to the feet of the Guru. ||8||6||

414 : 3190
Aasaa, First Mehl:

414 : 3191
They sing religious songs, but their consciousness is wicked.

414 : 3192
They sing the songs, and call themselves divine,

414 : 3193
but without the Name, their minds are false and wicked. ||1||

414 : 3194
Where are you going? O mind, remain in your own home.

414 : 3195
The Gurmukhs are satisfied with the Lord's Name; searching, they easily find the Lord. ||1||Pause||

414 : 3196
Sexual desire, anger and emotional attachment fill the mind and body;

414 : 3197
greed and egotism lead only to pain.

414 : 3201
Without the True Word of the Shabad, the Mansion of the Lord's Presence is not realized. ||3||

414 : 3202
One who merges his form into the Formless Lord,

414 : 3203
abides in the True Lord, the Powerful, beyond power.

414 : 3204
Such a person does not enter into the womb of reincarnation again. ||4||

414 : 3205
Go there, where you may obtain the Naam, the Name of the Lord.
