Raag Maaroo - Part 029

1017 : 1104
Maaroo, Fifth Mehl, Third House, Ashtapadees:

1017 : 1105
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1017 : 1106
Wandering and roaming through 8.4 million incarnations, you have now been given this human life, so difficult to obtain. ||1||

1017 : 1107
You fool! You are attached and clinging to such trivial pleasures!

1017 : 1108
The Ambrosial Nectar abides with you, but you are engrossed in sin and corruption. ||1||Pause||

1017 : 1109
You have come to trade in gems and jewels, but you have loaded only barren soil. ||2||

1017 : 1110
That home within which you live - you have not kept that home in your thoughts. ||3||

1017 : 1111
He is immovable, indestructible, the Giver of peace to the soul; and yet you do not sing His Praises, even for an instant. ||4||

1017 : 1112
You have forgotten that place where you must go; you have not attached your mind to the Lord, even for an instant. ||5||

1017 : 1113
Gazing upon your children, spouse, household and paraphernalia, you are entangled in them. ||6||

1017 : 1114
As God links the mortals, so are they linked, and so are the deeds they do. ||7||

1017 : 1115
When He becomes Merciful, then the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, is found; servant Nanak meditates on God. ||8||1||

1017 : 1116
Maaroo, Fifth Mehl:

1017 : 1117
Granting His Grace, He has protected me; I have found the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

1017 : 1118
My tongue lovingly chants the Lord's Name; this love is so sweet and intense! ||1||

1017 : 1119
He is the place of rest for my mind,

1017 : 1120
my friend, companion, associate and relative; He is the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts. ||1||Pause||

1017 : 1121
He created the world-ocean; I seek the Sanctuary of that God.

Continued...

1017 : 1122
By Guru's Grace, I worship and adore God; the Messenger of Death can't say anything to me. ||2||

1017 : 1123
Emancipation and liberation are at His Door; He is the treasure in the hearts of the Saints.

1017 : 1124
The all-knowing Lord and Master shows us the true way of life; He is our Savior and Protector forever. ||3||

1017 : 1125
Pain, suffering and troubles are eradicated, when the Lord abides in the mind.

1017 : 1126
Death, hell and the most horrible dwelling of sin and corruption cannot even touch such a person. ||4||

1017 : 1127
Wealth, miraculous spiritual powers and the nine treasures come from the Lord, as do the streams of Ambrosial Nectar.

1017 : 1128
In the beginning, in the middle, and in the end, He is perfect, lofty, unapproachable and unfathomable. ||5||

1017 : 1129
The Siddhas, seekers, angelic beings, silent sages, and the Vedas speak of Him.

1017 : 1130
Meditating in remembrance on the Lord and Master, celestial peace is enjoyed; He has no end or limitation. ||6||

1017 : 1131
Countless sins are erased in an instant, meditating on the Benevolent Lord within the heart.

1017 : 1132
Such a person becomes the purest of the pure, and is blessed with the merits of millions of donations to charity and cleansing baths. ||7||

1017 : 1133
God is power, intellect, understanding, the breath of life, wealth, and everything for the Saints.

1017 : 1134
May I never forget Him from my mind, even for an instant - this is Nanak's prayer. ||8||2||

1017 : 1135
Maaroo, Fifth Mehl:

1017 : 1136
The sharp tool cuts down the tree, but it does not feel anger in its mind.

1017 : 1137
It serves the purpose of the cutter, and does not blame him at all. ||1||

1017 : 1138
O my mind, continually, continuously, meditate on the Lord.

1017 : 1139
The Lord of the Universe is merciful, divine and compassionate. Listen - this is the way of the Saints. ||1||Pause||
