Raag Basant - Part 022

1189 : 1044
That humble being who is imbued with the sublime essence of the Lord is certified and approved. ||7||

1189 : 1045
I see Him here and there; I dwell on Him intuitively.

1189 : 1046
I do not love any other than You, O Lord and Master.

1189 : 1047
O Nanak, my ego has been burnt away by the Word of the Shabad.

1189 : 1048
The True Guru has shown me the Blessed Vision of the True Lord. ||8||3||

1189 : 1049
Basant, First Mehl:

1189 : 1050
The fickle consciousness cannot find the Lord's limits.

1189 : 1051
It is caught in non-stop coming and going.

1189 : 1052
I am suffering and dying, O my Creator.

1189 : 1053
No one cares for me, except my Beloved. ||1||

1189 : 1054
All are high and exalted; how can I call anyone low?

1189 : 1055
Devotional worship of the Lord and the True Name has satisfied me. ||1||Pause||

1189 : 1056
I have taken all sorts of medicines; I am so tired of them.

1189 : 1057
How can this disease be cured, without my Guru?

1189 : 1058
Without devotional worship of the Lord, the pain is so great.

1189 : 1059
My Lord and Master is the Giver of pain and pleasure. ||2||

1189 : 1060
The disease is so deadly; how can I find the courage?

1189 : 1061
He knows my disease, and only He can take away the pain.

1189 : 1062
My mind and body are filled with faults and demerits.

1189 : 1063
I searched and searched, and found the Guru, O my brother! ||3||

1189 : 1064
The Word of the Guru's Shabad, and the Lord's Name are the cures.

1189 : 1065
As You keep me, so do I remain.

1189 : 1066
The world is sick; where should I look?

1189 : 1067
The Lord is Pure and Immaculate; Immaculate is His Name. ||4||

1189 : 1068
The Guru sees and reveals the Lord's home, deep within the home of the self;

1189 : 1069
He ushers the soul-bride into the Mansion of the Lord's Presence.

1189 : 1070
When the mind remains in the mind, and the consciousness in the consciousness,

1189 : 1071
such people of the Lord remain unattached. ||5||

1189 : 1072
They remain free of any desire for happiness or sorrow;

Continued...

1189 : 1073
tasting the Amrit, the Ambrosial Nectar, they abide in the Lord's Name.

1189 : 1074
They recognize their own selves, and remain lovingly attuned to the Lord.

1189 : 1075
They are victorious on the battlefield of life, following the Guru's Teachings, and their pains run away. ||6||

1189 : 1076
The Guru has given me the True Ambrosial Nectar; I drink it in.

1189 : 1077
Of course, I have died, and now I am alive to live.

1189 : 1078
Please, protect me as Your Own, if it pleases You.

1189 : 1079
One who is Yours, merges into You. ||7||

1189 : 1080
Painful diseases afflict those who are sexually promiscuous.

1189 : 1081
God appears permeating and pervading in each and every heart.

1189 : 1082
One who remains unattached, through the Word of the Guru's Shabad

1189 : 1083
- O Nanak, his heart and consciousness dwell upon and savor the Lord. ||8||4||

1189 : 1084
Basant, First Mehl, Ik-Tukee:

1189 : 1085
Do not make such a show of rubbing ashes on your body.

1189 : 1086
O naked Yogi, this is not the way of Yoga! ||1||

1189 : 1087
You fool! How can you have forgotten the Lord's Name?

1189 : 1088
At the very last moment, it and it alone shall be of any use to you. ||1||Pause||

1189 : 1089
Consult the Guru, reflect and think it over.

1189 : 1090
Wherever I look, I see the Lord of the World. ||2||

1189 : 1091
What can I say? I am nothing.

1189 : 1092
All my status and honor are in Your Name. ||3||

1189 : 1093
Why do you take such pride in gazing upon your property and wealth?

1189 : 1094
When you must leave, nothing shall go along with you. ||4||

1189 : 1095
So subdue the five thieves, and hold your consciousness in its place.

1189 : 1096
This is the basis of the way of Yoga. ||5||

1189 : 1097
Your mind is tied with the rope of egotism.

1189 : 1098
You do not even think of the Lord - you fool! He alone shall liberate you. ||6||

1189 : 1099
If you forget the Lord, you will fall into the clutches of the Messenger of Death.

1189 : 1100
At that very last moment, you fool, you shall be beaten. ||7||
