1401 : 510
Naarad and Sanak and those men of God who became Gurmukh were carried across; attached to the One Name, they abandoned other tastes and pleasures, and were carried across.

This is the prayer of the Lord's humble slave: the Gurmukh obtains the Naam, the Name of the Lord, chanting Guru, Guru, Guru, Guru, Guru, O my mind. ||4||16||29||

in the Golden Age of Sat Yuga, He blessed Dhroo.

1401 : 514
He saved the devotee Prahlaad,

1401 : 515
placing the Lotus of His Hand upon his forehead.

1401 : 516
The Unseen Form of the Lord cannot be seen.

1401 : 517
The Siddhas and seekers all seek His Sanctuary.

1401 : 518
True are the Words of the Guru's teachings. Enshrine them in your soul.

1401 : 519
Emancipate your body, and redeem this human incarnation.

The Guru is the Boat, and the Guru is the Boatman. Without the Guru, no one can cross over.

Guru Nanak dwells near the Creator Lord.

1401 : 530
The Guru's Body is the Embodiment of the Supreme Lord God, our Lord and Master, the Form of the Primal Being, who nourishes and cherishes all.

1401 : 531
So serve the Guru, the True Guru; His ways and means are inscrutable. The Great Guru Raam Daas is the Boat to carry us across. ||1||

The Holy people chant the Ambrosial Words of His Bani with delight in their minds.
