In love and attachment to Maya, he has no understanding at all.

1049 : 2550
The blind, self-willed manmukh sees nothing; through the Guru's Teachings, the Naam is gloriously revealed. ||14||

1049 : 2551
The manmukhs are asleep in egotism and Maya.

1049 : 2552
They do not watch over their own homes, and are ruined in the end.

1049 : 2553
They slander others, and burn in great anxiety; they dwell in pain and suffering. ||15||

1049 : 2554

Maaroo, Third Mehl:

1049 : 2558
I serve the One Lord, who is eternal, stable and True.

1049 : 2559
Attached to duality, the whole world is false.

1049 : 2560
Following the Guru's Teachings, I praise the True Lord forever, pleased with the Truest of the True. ||1||

1049 : 2561
Your Glorious Virtues are so many, Lord; I do not know even one.

1049 : 2562
The Life of the world, the Great Giver, attaches us to himself.

1049 : 2563
He Himself forgives, and bestows glorious greatness. Following the Guru's Teachings, this mind is delighted. ||2||

1049 : 2564
The Word of the Shabad has subdued the waves of Maya.

1049 : 2565
Egotism has been conquered, and this mind has become immaculate.

1049 : 2566
I intuitively sing His Glorious Praises, imbued with the Lord's Love. My tongue chants and savors the Lord's Name. ||3||

1049 : 2567
Crying out, "Mine, mine!" he spends his life.

1049 : 2568
The self-willed manmukh does not understand; he wanders around in ignorance.

1049 : 2569
The Messenger of Death watches over him every moment, every instant; night and day, his life is wasting away. ||4||

1049 : 2570
He practices greed within, and does not understand.

1049 : 2571
He does not see the Messenger of Death hovering over his head.

1049 : 2572
Whatever one does in this world, will come to face him in the hereafter; what can he do at that very last moment? ||5||

1049 : 2579
The One Lord is contained within all.

1049 : 2580
By Guru's Grace, He is revealed.

1049 : 2581
One who subdues his ego, finds lasting peace; he drinks in the Ambrosial Nectar of the True Name. ||8||

1049 : 2582
God is the Destroyer of sin and pain.

1049 : 2583
The Gurmukh serves Him, and contemplates the Word of the Shabad.

1049 : 2584
He Himself is pervading everything. The Gurmukh's body and mind are saturated and pleased. ||9||

Even Indra, seated upon his throne, is caught in the fear of death.

When one meets with the True Guru, one is liberated, drinking in and savoring the sublime essence of the Lord, Har, Har. ||11||

Forever pure and sanctified is the Word of the Guru's Bani; following the Guru's Teachings, one's inner being is drenched in it. ||12||

1049 : 2594
