One who has met the True Guru, remains awake and aware.

1128 : 113
Such a person overpowers the five thieves. ||2||

1128 : 114
One who contemplates the essence of reality remains awake and aware.

1128 : 115
He kills his self-conceit, and does not kill anyone else. ||3||

1128 : 116
One who knows the One Lord remains awake and aware.

1128 : 117
He abandons the service of others, and realizes the essence of reality. ||4||

1128 : 118
Of the four castes, whoever remains awake and aware

1128 : 119
is released from birth and death. ||5||

1128 : 120
Says Nanak, that humble being remains awake and aware,

1128 : 121
who applies the ointment of spiritual wisdom to his eyes. ||6||2||

1128 : 122
Bhairao, Third Mehl:

1128 : 123
Whoever the Lord keeps in His Sanctuary,

1128 : 124
is attached to the Truth, and receives the fruit of Truth. ||1||

1128 : 125
O mortal, unto whom will you complain?

Continued...

1128 : 126
The Hukam of the Lord's Command is pervasive; by the Hukam of His Command, all things happen. ||1||Pause||

1128 : 127
This Creation was established by You.

1128 : 128
In an instant You destroy it, and You create it again without a moment's delay. ||2||

1128 : 129
By His Grace, He has staged this Play.

1128 : 130
By the Guru's Merciful Grace, I have obtained the supreme status. ||3||

1128 : 131
Says Nanak, He alone kills and revives.

1128 : 132
Understand this well - do not be confused by doubt. ||4||3||

1128 : 133
Bhairao, Third Mehl:

1128 : 134
I am the bride; the Creator is my Husband Lord.

1128 : 135
As He inspires me, I adorn myself. ||1||

1128 : 136
When it pleases Him, He enjoys me.

1128 : 137
I am joined, body and mind, to my True Lord and Master. ||1||Pause||

1128 : 138
How can anyone praise or slander anyone else?

1128 : 139
The One Lord Himself is pervading and permeating all. ||2||

1128 : 140
By Guru's Grace, I am attracted by His Love.

1128 : 141
I shall meet with my Merciful Lord, and vibrate the Panch Shabad, the Five Primal Sounds. ||3||

1128 : 142
Prays Nanak, what can anyone do?

1128 : 143
He alone meets with the Lord, whom the Lord Himself meets. ||4||4||

1128 : 144
Bhairao, Third Mehl:

1128 : 145
He alone is a silent sage, who subdues his mind's duality.

1128 : 146
Subduing his duality, he contemplates God. ||1||

1128 : 147
Let each person examine his own mind, O Siblings of Destiny.

1128 : 148
Examine your mind, and you shall obtain the nine treasures of the Naam. ||1||Pause||

1128 : 149
The Creator created the world, upon the foundation of worldly love and attachment.

1128 : 150
Attaching it to possessiveness, He has led it into confusion with doubt. ||2||

1128 : 151
From this Mind come all bodies, and the breath of life.

1128 : 152
By mental contemplation, the mortal realizes the Hukam of the Lord's Command, and merges in Him. ||3||
