When someone comes to love the Lord of Lakhshmi,

his sorrow departs, and he obtains total peace. ||43||

KHAKHA: Many have wasted their lives, and then perished.

Wasting away, they do not remember the Lord, even now.

But if someone, even now, comes to know the transitory nature of the world and restrain his mind,

he shall find his permanent home, from which he was separated. ||44||

Section 07 - Raag Gauree - Part 193

The fifty-two letters have been joined together.

But people cannot recognize the One Word of God.

Kabeer speaks the Shabad, the Word of Truth.

One who is a Pandit, a religious scholar, must remain fearless.

It is the business of the scholarly person to join letters.

The spiritual person contemplates the essence of reality.

According to the wisdom within the mind,

says Kabeer, so does one come to understand. ||45||

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

Raag Gauree, T'hitee ~ The Lunar Days Of Kabeer Jee:

Shalok:

There are fifteen lunar days, and seven days of the week.

Says Kabeer, it is neither here nor there.

When the Siddhas and seekers come to know the Lord's mystery,

they themselves become the Creator; they themselves become the Divine Lord. ||1||

T'HITEE:

On the day of the new moon, give up your hopes.

Remember the Lord, the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts.

You shall attain the Gate of Liberation while yet alive.

You shall come to know the Shabad, the Word of the Fearless Lord, and the essence of your own inner being. ||1||

One who enshrines love for the Lotus Feet of the Lord of the Universe

- by the Grace of the Saints, her mind becomes pure; night and day, she remains awake and aware, singing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises. ||1||Pause||

On the first day of the lunar cycle, contemplate the Beloved Lord.

He is playing within the heart; He has no body - He is Infinite.

The pain of death never consumes that person

who remains absorbed in the Primal Lord God. ||2||

On the second day of the lunar cycle, know that there are two beings within the fiber of the body.

Maya and God are blended with everything.

God does not increase or decrease.

He is unknowable and immaculate; He does not change. ||3||

On the third day of the lunar cycle, one who maintains his equilibrium amidst the three modes

finds the source of ecstasy and the highest status.

In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, faith wells up.

Outwardly, and deep within, God's Light is always radiant. ||4||

On the fourth day of the lunar cycle, restrain your fickle mind,

and do not ever associate with sexual desire or anger.

On land and sea, He Himself is in Himself.

He Himself meditates and chants His Chant. ||5||
