877 : 24
Wherever I look, there I see Him pervading. ||3||

877 : 25
There is doubt within me, and Maya is outside; it hits me in the eyes like an arrow.

877 : 26
Prays Nanak, the slave of the Lord's slaves: such a mortal suffers terribly. ||4||2||

877 : 27
Raamkalee, First Mehl:

877 : 28
Where is that door, where You live, O Lord? What is that door called? Among all doors, who can find that door?

877 : 29
For the sake of that door, I wander around sadly, detached from the world; if only someone would come and tell me about that door. ||1||

877 : 30
How can I cross over the world-ocean?

877 : 31
While I am living, I cannot be dead. ||1||Pause||

877 : 32
Pain is the door, and anger is the guard; hope and anxiety are the two shutters.

877 : 33
Maya is the water in the moat; in the middle of this moat, he has built his home. The Primal Lord sits in the Seat of Truth. ||2||

877 : 34
You have so many Names, Lord, I do not know their limit. There is no other equal to You.

877 : 35
Do not speak out loud - remain in your mind. The Lord Himself knows, and He Himself acts. ||3||

877 : 36
As long as there is hope, there is anxiety; so how can anyone speak of the One Lord?

877 : 37
In the midst of hope, remain untouched by hope; then, O Nanak, you shall meet the One Lord. ||4||

877 : 38
In this way, you shall cross over the world-ocean.

877 : 39
This is the way to remain dead while yet alive. ||1||Second Pause||3||

877 : 40
Raamkalee, First Mehl:

877 : 41
Awareness of the Shabad and the Teachings is my horn; the people hear the sound of its vibrations.

877 : 42
Honor is my begging-bowl, and the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the charity I receive. ||1||

877 : 43
O Baba, Gorakh is the Lord of the Universe; He is always awake and aware.

877 : 44
He alone is Gorakh, who sustains the earth; He created it in an instant. ||1||Pause||

877 : 45
Binding together water and air, He infused the breath of life into the body, and made the lamps of the sun and the moon.

877 : 46
To die and to live, He gave us the earth, but we have forgotten these blessings. ||2||

Continued...

877 : 47
There are so many Siddhas, seekers, Yogis, wandering pilgrims, spiritual teachers and good people.

877 : 48
If I meet them, I chant the Lord's Praises, and then, my mind serves Him. ||3||

877 : 49
Paper and salt, protected by ghee, remain untouched by water, as the lotus remains unaffected in water.

877 : 50
Those who meet with such devotees, O servant Nanak - what can death do to them? ||4||4||

877 : 51
Raamkalee, First Mehl:

877 : 52
Listen, Machhindra, to what Nanak says.

877 : 53
One who subdues the five passions does not waver.

877 : 54
One who practices Yoga in such a way,

877 : 55
saves himself, and saves all his generations. ||1||

877 : 56
He alone is a hermit, who attains such understanding.

877 : 57
Day and night, he remains absorbed in deepest Samaadhi. ||1||Pause||

877 : 58
He begs for loving devotion to the Lord, and lives in the Fear of God.

877 : 59
He is satisfied, with the priceless gift of contentment.

877 : 60
Becoming the embodiment of meditation, he attains the true Yogic posture.

877 : 61
He focuses his consciousness in the deep trance of the True Name. ||2||

877 : 62
Nanak chants the Ambrosial Bani.

877 : 63
Listen, O Machhindra: this is the insignia of the true hermit.

877 : 64
One who, in the midst of hope, remains untouched by hope,

877 : 65
shall truly find the Creator Lord. ||3||

877 : 66
Prays Nanak, I share the mysterious secrets of God.

877 : 67
The Guru and His disciple are joined together!

877 : 68
One who eats this food, this medicine of the Teachings,
