Raag Malaar - Part 029

1282 : 1101
Pauree:

1282 : 1102
How can the unweighable be weighed? Without weighing Him, He cannot be obtained.

1282 : 1103
Reflect on the Word of the Guru's Shabad, and immerse yourself in His Glorious Virtues.

1282 : 1104
He Himself weighs Himself; He unites in Union with Himself.

1282 : 1105
His value cannot be estimated; nothing can be said about this.

1282 : 1106
I am a sacrifice to my Guru; He has made me realize this true realization.

1282 : 1107
The world has been deceived, and the Ambrosial Nectar is being plundered. The self-willed manmukh does not realize this.

1282 : 1108
Without the Name, nothing will go along with him; he wastes his life, and departs.

1282 : 1109
Those who follow the Guru's Teachings and remain awake and aware, preserve and protect the home of their heart; demons have no power against them. ||8||

1282 : 1110
Shalok, Third Mehl:

1282 : 1111
O rainbird, do not cry out. Do not let this mind of yours be so thirsty for a drop of water. Obey the Hukam, the Command of your Lord and Master,

1282 : 1112
and your thirst shall be quenched. Your love for Him shall increase four-fold. ||1||

1282 : 1113
Third Mehl:

1282 : 1114
O rainbird, your place is in the water; you move around in the water.

1282 : 1115
But you do not appreciate the water, and so you cry out.

1282 : 1116
In the water and on the land, it rains down in the ten directions. No place is left dry.

1282 : 1117
With so much rain, those who are die of thirst are very unfortunate.

1282 : 1118
O Nanak, the Gurmukhs understand; the Lord abides within their minds. ||2||

1282 : 1119
Pauree:

1282 : 1120
The Yogic Masters, celibates, Siddhas and spiritual teachers - none of them has found the limits of the Lord.

1282 : 1121
The Gurmukhs meditate on the Naam, and merge in You, O Lord.

1282 : 1122
For thirty-six ages, God remained in utter darkness, as He pleased.

1282 : 1123
The vast expanse of water swirled around.

Continued...

1282 : 1124
The Creator of all is Infinite, Endless and Inaccessible.

1282 : 1125
He formed fire and conflict, hunger and thirst.

1282 : 1126
Death hangs over the heads of the people of the world, in the love of duality.

1282 : 1127
The Savior Lord saves those who realize the Word of the Shabad. ||9||

1282 : 1128
Shalok, Third Mehl:

1282 : 1129
This rain pours down on all; it rains down in accordance with God's Loving Will.

1282 : 1130
Those trees become green and lush, which remain immersed in the Guru's Word.

1282 : 1131
O Nanak, by His Grace, there is peace; the pain of these creatures is gone. ||1||

1282 : 1132
Third Mehl:

1282 : 1133
The night is wet with dew; lightning flashes, and the rain pours down in torrents.

1282 : 1134
Food and wealth are produced in abundance when it rains, if it is the Will of God.

1282 : 1135
Consuming it, the minds of His creatures are satisfied, and they adopt the lifestyle of the way.

1282 : 1136
This wealth is the play of the Creator Lord. Sometimes it comes, and sometimes it goes.

1282 : 1137
The Naam is the wealth of the spiritually wise. It is permeating and pervading forever.

1282 : 1138
O Nanak, those who are blessed with His Glance of Grace receive this wealth. ||2||

1282 : 1139
Pauree:

1282 : 1140
He Himself does, and causes all to be done. Unto whom can I complain?

1282 : 1141
He Himself calls the mortal beings to account; He Himself causes them to act.

1282 : 1142
Whatever pleases Him happens. Only a fool issues commands.

1282 : 1143
He Himself saves and redeems; He Himself is the Forgiver.

1282 : 1144
He Himself sees, and He Himself hears; He gives His Support to all.

1282 : 1145
He alone is pervading and permeating all; He considers each and every one.
