The virtuous person merges in the Virtuous Lord; his forehead bears the insignia of the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

The true person merges in the True Lord; his comings and goings are over.

The true person realizes the True Lord, and is imbued with Truth. He meets the True Lord, and is pleasing to the Lord's Mind.

No one else is seen to be above the True Lord; the true person merges in the True Lord.

The Fascinating Lord has fascinated my mind; releasing me from bondage, He has set me free.

O Nanak, my light merged into the Light, when I met my most Darling Beloved. ||3||

By searching, the true home, the place of the True Guru is found.

The Gurmukh obtains spiritual wisdom, while the self-willed manmukh does not.

Whoever the Lord has blessed with the gift of Truth is accepted; the Supremely Wise Lord is forever the Great Giver.

He is known to be Immortal, Unborn and Permanent; the True Mansion of His Presence is everlasting.

The day-to-day account of deeds is not recorded for that person, who manifests the radiance of the Divine Light of the Lord.

O Nanak, the true person is absorbed in the True Lord; the Gurmukh crosses over to the other side. ||4||5||

Tukhaari, First Mehl:

O my ignorant, unconscious mind, reform yourself.

O my mind, leave behind your faults and demerits, and be absorbed in virtue.

You are deluded by so many flavors and pleasures, and you act in such confusion. You are separated, and you will not meet your Lord.

How can the impassible world-ocean be crossed? The fear of the Messenger of Death is deadly. The path of Death is agonizingly painful.

The mortal does not know the Lord in the evening, or in the morning; trapped on the treacherous path, what will he do then?

Bound in bondage, he is released only by this method: as Gurmukh, serve the Lord. ||1||

O my mind, abandon your household entanglements.

O my mind, serve the Lord, the Primal, Detached Lord.

Section 26 - Raag Tukhaari - Part 007

Meditate in remembrance on the One Universal Creator; the True Lord created the entire Universe.

The Guru controls the air, water and fire; He has staged the drama of the world.

Reflect on your own self, and so practice good conduct; chant the Name of the Lord as your self-discipline and meditation.

The Name of the Lord is your Companion, Friend and Dear Beloved; chant it, and meditate on it. ||2||

O my mind, remain steady and stable, and you will not have to endure beatings.

O my mind, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, you shall merge into Him with intuitive ease.

Singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, be happy. Apply the ointment of spiritual wisdom to your eyes.

The Word of the Shabad is the lamp which illuminates the three worlds; it slaughters the five demons.
