1302 : 279
I am wonder-struck, wonder-struck, wonder-struck and amazed, dyed in the deep crimson color of my Beloved.

1302 : 280
Says Nanak, the Saints savor this sublime essence, like the mute, who tastes the sweet candy, but only smiles. ||2||1||20||

1302 : 281
Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

1302 : 282
The Saints do not know any other except God.

1302 : 283
They look upon all equally, the high and the low; they speak of Him with their mouths, and honor Him in their minds. ||1||Pause||

1302 : 284
He is pervading and permeating each and every heart; He is the Ocean of Peace, the Destroyer of fear. He is my praanaa - the Breath of Life.

1302 : 285
My mind was enlightened, and my doubt was dispelled, when the Guru whispered His Mantra into my ears. ||1||

1302 : 286
He is All-powerful, the Ocean of Mercy, the All-knowing Searcher of Hearts.

1302 : 287
Twenty-four hours a day Nanak sings His Praises, and begs for the Gift of the Lord. ||2||2||21||

1302 : 288
Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

1302 : 289
Many speak and talk about God.

1302 : 290
But one who understands the essence of Yoga - such a humble servant is very rare||1||Pause||

1302 : 291
He has no pain - he is totally at peace. With his eyes, he sees only the One Lord.

1302 : 292
No one seems evil to him - all are good. There is no defeat - he is totally victorious. ||1||

1302 : 293
He is never in sorrow - he is always happy; but he gives this up, and does not take anything.

1302 : 294
Says Nanak, the humble servant of the Lord is himself the Lord, Har, Har; he does not come and go in reincarnation. ||2||3||22||

1302 : 295
Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

1302 : 296
I pray that my heart may never forget my Beloved.

1302 : 297
My body and mind are blended with Him, but the Enticer, Maya, is enticing me, O my mother. ||1||Pause||

1302 : 298
Those unto whom I tell my pain and frustration - they themselves are caught and stuck.

1302 : 299
In all sorts of ways, Maya has cast the net; the knots cannot be loosened. ||1||

1302 : 300
Wandering and roaming, slave Nanak has come to the Sanctuary of the Saints.

1302 : 301
The bonds of ignorance, doubt, emotional attachment and the love of Maya have been cut; God hugs me close in His Embrace. ||2||4||23||

1302 : 302
Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

1302 : 303
My home is filled with ecstasy, pleasure and joy.

1302 : 304
I sing the Naam, and I meditate on the Naam. The Naam is the Support of my breath of life. ||1||Pause||

1302 : 305
The Naam is spiritual wisdom, the Naam is my purifying bath. The Naam resolves all my affairs.

1302 : 306
The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is glorious grandeur; the Naam is glorious greatness. The Name of the Lord carries me across the terrifying world-ocean. ||1||

1302 : 307
The Unfathomable Treasure, the Priceless Gem - I have received it, through the Guru's Feet.

1302 : 308
Says Nanak, God has become Merciful; my heart is intoxicated by the Blessed Vision of His Darshan. ||2||5||24||

1302 : 309
Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

1302 : 310
My Friend, my Best Friend, my Lord and Master, is near.

1302 : 311
He sees and hears everything; He is with everyone. You are here for such short time - why do you do evil? ||1||Pause||

1302 : 312
Except for the Naam, whatever you are involved with is nothing - nothing is yours.

1302 : 313
Hereafter, everything is revealed to your gaze; but in this world, all are enticed by the darkness of doubt. ||1||

1302 : 314
People are caught in Maya, attached to their children and spouses. They have forgotten the Great and Generous Giver.
