The Creator Himself inspires us to act; He Himself blesses us with His treasure. ||8||

The limits of His virtues cannot be found; I sing His Praises and contemplate the Word of the Shabad. ||9||

I chant the Lord's Name, and praise my Dear Lord; egotism is eradicated from within me. ||10||

The treasure of the Naam is obtained from the Guru; the treasures of the True Lord are inexhaustible. ||11||

He Himself is pleased with His devotees; by His Grace, He infuses His strength within them. ||12||

They always feel hunger for the True Name; they sing and contemplate the Shabad. ||13||

Soul, body and everything are His; it is so difficult to speak of, and contemplate Him. ||14||

Those humble beings who are attached to the Shabad are saved; they cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||15||

Without the True Lord, no one can cross over; how rare are those who contemplate and understand this. ||16||

We obtain only that which is pre-ordained; receiving the Lord's Shabad, we are embellished. ||17||

Imbued with the Shabad, the body becomes golden, and loves only the True Name. ||18||

The body is then filled to overflowing with Ambrosial Nectar, obtained by contemplating the Shabad. ||19||

Those who seek God, find Him; others burst and die from their own egotism. ||20||

The debaters waste away, while the servants serve, with love and affection for the Guru. ||21||

He alone is a Yogi, who contemplates the essence of spiritual wisdom, and conquers egotism and thirsty desire. ||22||

The True Guru, the Great Giver, is revealed to those upon whom You bestow Your Grace, O Lord. ||23||

Those who do not serve the True Guru, and who are attached to Maya, are drowned; they die in their own egotism. ||24||

As long as there is breath within you, so long you should serve the Lord; then, you will go and meet the Lord. ||25||

Night and day, she remains awake and aware, day and night; she is the darling bride of her Beloved Husband Lord. ||26||

I offer my body and mind in sacrifice to my Guru; I am a sacrifice to Him. ||27||

Attachment to Maya will end and go away; only by contemplating the Shabad will you be saved. ||28||

They are awake and aware, whom the Lord Himself awakens; so contemplate the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||29||

O Nanak, those who do not remember the Naam are dead. The devotees live in contemplative meditation. ||30||4||13||

Raamkalee, Third Mehl:

Receiving the treasure of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, from the Guru, I remain satisfied and fulfilled. ||1||

O Saints, the Gurmukhs attain the state of liberation.

Section 22 - Raag Raamkalee - Part 037

The One Name abides deep within my heart; such is the glorious greatness of the Perfect Lord. ||1||Pause||
