Raag Goojaree - Part 038

526 : 1432
Deluded by doubt, O Jai Chand,

526 : 1433
you have not realized the Lord, the embodiment of supreme bliss. ||1||Pause||

526 : 1434
You eat in each and every house, fattening your body; you wear the patched coat and the ear-rings of the beggar, for the sake of wealth.

526 : 1435
You apply the ashes of cremation to your body, but without a Guru, you have not found the essence of reality. ||2||

526 : 1436
Why bother to chant your spells? Why bother to practice austerities? Why bother to churn water?

526 : 1437
Meditate on the Lord of Nirvaanaa, who has created the 8.4 million species of beings. ||3||

526 : 1438
Why bother to carry the water-pot, O saffron-robed Yogi? Why bother to visit the sixty-eight holy places of pilgrimage?

526 : 1439
Says Trilochan, listen, mortal: you have no corn - what are you trying to thresh? ||4||1||

526 : 1440
GOOJAREE:

526 : 1441
At the very last moment, one who thinks of wealth, and dies in such thoughts,

526 : 1442
shall be reincarnated over and over again, in the form of serpents. ||1||

526 : 1443
O sister, do not forget the Name of the Lord of the Universe. ||Pause||

526 : 1444
At the very last moment, he who thinks of women, and dies in such thoughts,

526 : 1445
shall be reincarnated over and over again as a prostitute. ||2||

526 : 1446
At the very last moment, one who thinks of his children, and dies in such thoughts,

526 : 1447
shall be reincarnated over and over again as a pig. ||3||

526 : 1448
At the very last moment, one who thinks of mansions, and dies in such thoughts,

526 : 1449
shall be reincarnated over and over again as a goblin. ||4||

Continued...

526 : 1450
At the very last moment, one who thinks of the Lord, and dies in such thoughts,

526 : 1451
says Trilochan, that man shall be liberated; the Lord shall abide in his heart. ||5||2||

526 : 1452
Goojaree, Padas Of Jai Dayv Jee, Fourth House:

526 : 1453
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

526 : 1454
In the very beginning, was the Primal Lord, unrivalled, the Lover of Truth and other virtues.

526 : 1455
He is absolutely wonderful, transcending creation; remembering Him, all are emancipated. ||1||

526 : 1456
Dwell only upon the beauteous Name of the Lord,

526 : 1457
the embodiment of ambrosial nectar and reality.

526 : 1458
Remembering Him in meditation, the fear of birth, old age and death will not trouble you. ||1||Pause||

526 : 1459
If you desire to escape the fear of the Messenger of Death, then praise the Lord joyfully, and do good deeds.

526 : 1460
In the past, present and future, He is always the same; He is the embodiment of supreme bliss. ||2||

526 : 1461
If you seek the path of good conduct, forsake greed, and do not look upon other men's property and women.

526 : 1462
Renounce all evil actions and evil inclinations, and hurry to the Sanctuary of the Lord. ||3||

526 : 1463
Worship the immaculate Lord, in thought, word and deed.

526 : 1464
What is the good of practicing Yoga, giving feasts and charity, and practicing penance? ||4||

526 : 1465
Meditate on the Lord of the Universe, the Lord of the Universe, O man; He is the source of all the spiritual powers of the Siddhas.

526 : 1466
Jai Dayv has openly come to Him; He is the salvation of all, in the past, present and future. ||5||1||
