Raag Bilaaval - Part 063

857 : 2531
Abandon your Yogic postures and breath control exercises, O madman.

857 : 2532
Renounce fraud and deception, and meditate continuously on the Lord, O madman. ||1||Pause||

857 : 2533
That which you beg for, has been enjoyed in the three worlds.

857 : 2534
Says Kabeer, the Lord is the only Yogi in the world. ||2||8||

857 : 2535
BILAAVAL:

857 : 2536
This Maya has made me forget Your feet, O Lord of the World, Master of the Universe.

857 : 2537
Not even a bit of love wells up in Your humble servant; what can Your poor servant do? ||1||Pause||

857 : 2538
Cursed is the body, cursed is the wealth, and cursed is this Maya; cursed, cursed is the clever intellect and understanding.

857 : 2539
Restrain and hold back this Maya; overcome it, through the Word of the Guru's Teachings. ||1||

857 : 2540
What good is farming, and what good is trading? Worldly entanglements and pride are false.

857 : 2541
Says Kabeer, in the end, they are ruined; ultimately, Death will come for them. ||2||9||

857 : 2542
BILAAVAL:

857 : 2543
Within the pool of the body, there is an incomparably beautiful lotus flower.

857 : 2544
Within it, is the Supreme Light, the Supreme Soul, who has no feature or form. ||1||

857 : 2545
O my mind, vibrate, meditate on the Lord, and forsake your doubt. The Lord is the Life of the World. ||1||Pause||

857 : 2546
Nothing is seen coming into the world, and nothing is seen leaving it.

857 : 2547
Where the body is born, there it dies, like the leaves of the water-lily. ||2||

857 : 2548
Maya is false and transitory; forsaking it, one obtains peaceful, celestial contemplation.

857 : 2549
Says Kabeer, serve Him within your mind; He is the Enemy of ego, the Destroyer of demons. ||3||10||

857 : 2550
BILAAVAL:

857 : 2551
The illusion of birth and death is gone; I lovingly focus on the Lord of the Universe.

857 : 2552
In my life, I am absorbed in deep silent meditation; the Guru's Teachings have awakened me. ||1||Pause||

857 : 2553
The sound made from bronze, that sound goes into the bronze again.

857 : 2554
But when the bronze is broken, O Pandit, O religious scholar, where does the sound go then? ||1||

857 : 2555
I gaze upon the world, the confluence of the three qualities; God is awake and aware in each and every heart.

857 : 2556
Such is the understanding revealed to me; within my heart, I have become a detached renunciate. ||2||

857 : 2557
I have come to know my own self, and my light has merged in the Light.

857 : 2558
Says Kabeer, now I know the Lord of the Universe, and my mind is satisfied. ||3||11||

857 : 2559
BILAAVAL:

857 : 2560
When Your Lotus Feet dwell within one's heart, why should that person waver, O Divine Lord?

857 : 2561
I know that all comforts, and the nine treasures, come to one who intuitively, naturally, chants the Praise of the Divine Lord. ||Pause||

857 : 2562
Such wisdom comes, only when one sees the Lord in all, and unties the knot of hypocrisy.

857 : 2563
Time and time again, he must hold himself back from Maya; let him take the scale of the Lord, and weigh his mind. ||1||

857 : 2564
Then wherever he goes, he will find peace, and Maya will not shake him.

857 : 2565
Says Kabeer, my mind believes in the Lord; I am absorbed in the Love of the Divine Lord. ||2||12||

857 : 2566
Bilaaval, The Word Of Devotee Naam Dayv Jee:

857 : 2567
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

857 : 2568
The Guru has made my life fruitful.
