Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Maaroo

To chant it is the most sublime and exalted activity in this world.

Doing so, the Messenger of Death, the evil enemy, is killed. Death does not even approach the Lord's servant. ||2||

One whose mind is satisfied with the Lord

- that servant is known throughout the four ages, in all four directions.

If some sinner speaks evil of him, the Messenger of Death chews him up. ||3||

The One Pure Creator Lord is in all.

He stages all His wondrous plays, and watches them.

Who can kill that person, whom the Lord has saved? The Creator Lord Himself delivers him. ||4||

I chant the Name of the Creator Lord, night and day.

He saves all His servants and devotees.

Consult the eighteen Puraanas and the four Vedas; O servant Nanak, only the Naam, the Name of the Lord, will deliver you. ||5||2||8||

Maaroo, Fifth Mehl, Second House:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

The earth, the Akaashic ethers and the stars abide in the Fear of God. The almighty Order of the Lord is over the heads of all.

Wind, water and fire abide in the Fear of God; poor Indra abides in the Fear of God as well. ||1||

I have heard one thing, that the One Lord alone is fearless.

He alone is at peace, and he alone is embellished forever, who meets with the Guru, and sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

The embodied and the divine beings abide in the Fear of God. The Siddhas and seekers die in the Fear of God.

The 8.4 millions species of beings die, and die again, and are born over and over again. They are consigned to reincarnation. ||2||

Section 25 - Raag Maaroo - Part 011

Those who embody the energies of sattva-white light, raajas-red passion, and taamas-black darkness, abide in the Fear of God, along with the many created forms.

This miserable deceiver Maya abides in the Fear of God; the Righteous Judge of Dharma is utterly afraid of Him as well. ||3||

The entire expanse of the Universe is in the Fear of God; only the Creator Lord is without this Fear.

Says Nanak, God is the companion of His devotees; His devotees look beautiful in the Court of the Lord. ||4||1||

Maaroo, Fifth Mehl:

The five year old orphan boy Dhroo, by meditating in remembrance on the Lord, became stationary and permanent.

For the sake of his son, Ajaamal called out, "O Lord, Naaraayan", who struck down and killed the Messenger of Death. ||1||

My Lord and Master has saved many, countless beings.

I am meek, with little or no understanding, and unworthy; I seek protection at the Lord's Door. ||1||Pause||

Baalmeek the outcaste was saved, and the poor hunter was saved as well.

The elephant remembered the Lord in his mind for an instant, and so was carried across. ||2||

He saved His devotee Prahlaad, and tore Harnaakhash with his nails.
