Raag Soohee - Part 028

755 : 1129
Raag Soohee, Third Mehl, Tenth House:

755 : 1130
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

755 : 1131
Do not praise the world; it shall simply pass away.

755 : 1132
Do not praise other people; they shall die and turn to dust. ||1||

755 : 1133
Waaho! Waaho! Hail, hail to my Lord and Master.

755 : 1134
As Gurmukh, forever praise the One who is forever True, Independent and Carefree. ||1||Pause||

755 : 1135
Making worldly friendships, the self-willed manmukhs burn and die.

755 : 1136
In the City of Death, they are bound and gagged and beaten; this opportunity shall never come again. ||2||

755 : 1137
The lives of the Gurmukhs are fruitful and blessed; they are committed to the True Word of the Shabad.

755 : 1138
Their souls are illuminated by the Lord, and they dwell in peace and pleasure. ||3||

755 : 1139
Those who forget the Word of the Guru's Shabad are engrossed in the love of duality.

755 : 1140
Their hunger and thirst never leave them, and night and day, they wander around burning. ||4||

755 : 1141
Those who make friendships with the wicked, and harbor animosity to the Saints,

755 : 1142
shall drown with their families, and their entire lineage shall be obliterated. ||5||

755 : 1143
It is not good to slander anyone, but the foolish, self-willed manmukhs still do it.

755 : 1144
The faces of the slanderers turn black, and they fall into the most horrible hell. ||6||

755 : 1145
O mind, as you serve, so do you become, and so are the deeds that you do.

755 : 1146
Whatever you yourself plant, that is what you shall have to eat; nothing else can be said about this. ||7||

755 : 1147
The speech of the great spiritual beings has a higher purpose.

755 : 1148
They are filled to over-flowing with Ambrosial Nectar, and they have absolutely no greed at all. ||8||

755 : 1149
The virtuous accumulate virtue, and teach others.

755 : 1150
Those who meet with them are so very fortunate; night and day, they chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||9||

755 : 1151
He who created the Universe, gives sustenance to it.

755 : 1152
The One Lord alone is the Great Giver. He Himself is the True Master. ||10||

755 : 1153
That True Lord is always with you; the Gurmukh is blessed with His Glance of Grace.

755 : 1154
He Himself shall forgive you, and merge you into Himself; forever cherish and contemplate God. ||11||

755 : 1155
The mind is impure; only the True Lord is pure. So how can it merge into Him?

755 : 1156
God merges it into Himself, and then it remains merged; through the Word of His Shabad, the ego is burnt away. ||12||

755 : 1157
Cursed is the life in this world, of one who forgets her True Husband Lord.

755 : 1158
The Lord grants His Mercy, and she does not forget Him, if she contemplates the Guru's Teachings. ||13||

755 : 1159
The True Guru unites her, and so she remains united with Him, with the True Lord enshrined within her heart.

755 : 1160
And so united, she will not be separated again; she remains in the love and affection of the Guru. ||14||

755 : 1161
I praise my Husband Lord, contemplating the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

755 : 1162
Meeting with my Beloved, I have found peace; I am His most beautiful and happy soul-bride. ||15||

755 : 1163
The mind of the self-willed manmukh is not softened; his consciousness is totally polluted and stone-hearted.

755 : 1164
Even if the venomous snake is fed on milk, it shall still be filled with poison. ||16||

755 : 1165
He Himself does - who else should I ask? He Himself is the Forgiving Lord.

755 : 1166
Through the Guru's Teachings, filth is washed away, and then, one is embellished with the ornament of Truth. ||17||
