Raag Sorat'h - Part 063

657 : 2510
Meeting the Divine True Guru, I merge into the sound current of the Naad. ||1||Pause||

657 : 2511
Where the dazzling white light is seen,

657 : 2512
there the unstruck sound current of the Shabad resounds.

657 : 2513
One's light merges in the Light;

657 : 2514
by Guru's Grace, I know this. ||2||

657 : 2515
The jewels are in the treasure chamber of the heart-lotus.

657 : 2516
They sparkle and glitter like lightning.

657 : 2517
The Lord is near at hand, not far away.

657 : 2518
He is totally permeating and pervading in my soul. ||3||

657 : 2519
Where the light of the undying sun shines,

657 : 2520
the light of burning lamps seems insignificant.

657 : 2521
By Guru's Grace, I know this.

657 : 2522
Servant Naam Dayv is absorbed in the Celestial Lord. ||4||1||

657 : 2523
FOURTH HOUSE, SORAT'H:

657 : 2524
The woman next door asked Naam Dayv, "Who built your house?

657 : 2525
I shall pay him double wages. Tell me, who is your carpenter?"||1||

657 : 2526
O sister, I cannot give this carpenter to you.

657 : 2527
Behold, my carpenter is pervading everywhere.

657 : 2528
My carpenter is the Support of the breath of life. ||1||Pause||

657 : 2529
This carpenter demands the wages of love, if someone wants Him to build their house.

657 : 2530
When one breaks his ties with all the people and relatives, then the carpenter comes of His own accord. ||2||

657 : 2531
I cannot describe such a carpenter, who is contained in everything, everywhere.

657 : 2532
The mute tastes the most sublime ambrosial nectar, but if you ask him to describe it, he cannot. ||3||

657 : 2533
Listen to the virtues of this carpenter, O sister; He stopped the oceans, and established Dhroo as the pole star.

657 : 2534
Naam Dayv's Lord Master brought Sita back, and gave Sri Lanka to Bhabheekhan. ||4||2||

657 : 2535
SORAT'H, THIRD HOUSE:

657 : 2536
The skinless drum plays.

657 : 2537
Without the rainy season, the clouds shake with thunder.

657 : 2538
Without clouds, the rain falls,

657 : 2539
if one contemplates the essence of reality. ||1||

657 : 2540
I have met my Beloved Lord.

657 : 2541
Meeting with Him, my body is made beauteous and sublime. ||1||Pause||

657 : 2542
Touching the philosopher's stone, I have been transformed into gold.

657 : 2543
I have threaded the jewels into my mouth and mind.

657 : 2544
I love Him as my own, and my doubt has been dispelled.

657 : 2545
Seeking the Guru's guidance, my mind is content. ||2||

657 : 2546
The water is contained within the pitcher;

657 : 2547
I know that the One Lord is contained in all.

657 : 2548
The mind of the disciple has faith in the Guru.

657 : 2549
Servant Naam Dayv understands the essence of reality. ||3||3||

657 : 2550
Raag Sorat'h, The Word Of Devotee Ravi Daas Jee:

657 : 2551
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

657 : 2552
When I am in my ego, then You are not with me. Now that You are with me, there is no egotism within me.

657 : 2553
The wind may raise up huge waves in the vast ocean, but they are just water in water. ||1||

657 : 2554
O Lord, what can I say about such an illusion?

657 : 2555
Things are not as they seem. ||1||Pause||

657 : 2556
It is like the king, who falls asleep upon his throne, and dreams that he is a beggar.

657 : 2557
His kingdom is intact, but separated from it, he suffers in sorrow. Such is my own condition. ||2||
