Raag Wadahans - Part 038

594 : 1386
One who does not savor the taste of the Shabad, who does not love the Naam, the Name of the Lord,

594 : 1387
and who speaks insipid words with his tongue, is ruined, again and again.

594 : 1388
O Nanak, he acts according to the karma of his past actions, which no one can erase. ||2||

594 : 1389
Pauree:

594 : 1390
Blessed, blessed is the True Being, my True Guru; meeting Him, I have found peace.

594 : 1391
Blessed, blessed is the True Being, my True Guru; meeting Him, I have attained the Lord's devotional worship.

594 : 1392
Blessed, blessed is the Lord's devotee, my True Guru; serving Him, I have come to enshrine love for the Name of the Lord.

594 : 1393
Blessed, blessed is the Knower of the Lord, my True Guru; He has taught me to look upon friend and foe alike.

594 : 1394
Blessed, blessed is the True Guru, my best friend; He has led me to embrace love for the Name of the Lord. ||19||

594 : 1395
Shalok, First Mehl:

594 : 1396
The soul-bride is at home, while the Husband Lord is away; she cherishes His memory, and mourns His absence.

594 : 1397
She shall meet Him without delay, if she rids herself of duality. ||1||

594 : 1398
First Mehl:

594 : 1399
O Nanak, false is the speech of one who acts without loving the Lord.

594 : 1400
He judges things to be good, only as long as the Lord gives and he receives. ||2||

594 : 1401
Pauree:

594 : 1402
The Lord, who created the creatures, also protects them.

594 : 1403
I have tasted the food of Ambrosial Nectar, the True Name.

594 : 1404
I am satisfied and satiated, and my hunger is appeased.

594 : 1405
The One Lord is pervading in all, but rare are those who realize this.

594 : 1406
Servant Nanak is enraptured, in the Protection of God. ||20||

594 : 1407
Shalok, Third Mehl:

594 : 1408
All the living beings of the world behold the True Guru.

594 : 1409
One is not liberated by merely seeing Him, unless one contemplates the Word of His Shabad.

594 : 1410
The filth of ego is not removed, and he does not enshrine love for the Naam.

594 : 1411
The Lord forgives some, and unites them with Himself; they forsake their duality and sinful ways.

594 : 1412
O Nanak, some behold the Blessed Vision of the True Guru's Darshan, with love and affection; conquering their ego, they meet with the Lord. ||1||

594 : 1413
Third Mehl:

594 : 1414
The foolish, blind clown does not serve the True Guru.

594 : 1415
In love with duality, he endures terrible suffering, and burning, he cries out in pain.

594 : 1416
He forgets the Guru, for the sake of mere objects, but they will not come to his rescue in the end.

594 : 1417
Through the Guru's Instructions, Nanak has found peace; the Forgiving Lord has forgiven him. ||2||

594 : 1418
Pauree:

594 : 1419
You Yourself, all by Yourself, are the Creator of all. If there were any other, then I would speak of another.

594 : 1420
The Lord Himself speaks, and causes us to speak; He Himself is pervading the water and the land.

594 : 1421
The Lord Himself destroys, and the Lord Himself saves. O mind, seek and remain in the Lord's Sanctuary.

594 : 1422
Other than the Lord, no one can kill or rejuvenate. O mind, do not be anxious - remain fearless.

594 : 1423
While standing, sitting, and sleeping, forever and ever, meditate on the Lord's Name; O servant Nanak, as Gurmukh, you shall attain the Lord. ||21||1||SUDH||
