in love with duality, it is deluded by doubt.

It does not remember the Lord, and suffers in eternal pain. Without remembering the Lord, it suffers in pain. ||12||

One who serves the True Guru is approved and respected.

His body and soul-swan are immaculate and pure; in the Court of the Lord, he is known to be true.

He serves the Lord, and enshrines the Lord in his mind; he is exalted, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||13||

Without good destiny, no one can serve the True Guru.

The self-willed manmukhs are deluded, and die weeping and wailing.

Those who are blessed by the Guru's Glance of Grace - the Dear Lord unites them with Himself. ||14||

In the body fortress, are the solidly-constructed markets.

The Gurmukh purchases the object, and takes care of it.

Meditating on the Name of the Lord, day and night, he attains the sublime, exalted status. ||15||

The True Lord Himself is the Giver of peace.

Through the Shabad of the Perfect Guru, He is realized.

Nanak praises the Naam, the True Name of the Lord; through perfect destiny, He is found. ||16||7||21||

Section 25 - Raag Maaroo - Part 078

Maaroo, Third Mehl:

The Formless Lord created the universe of form.

By the Hukam of His Command, He created attachment to Maya.

The Creator Himself stages all the plays; hearing of the True Lord, enshrine Him in your mind. ||1||

Maya, the mother, gave birth to the three gunas, the three qualities,

and proclaimed the four Vedas to Brahma.

Creating the years, months, days and dates, He infused intelligence into the world. ||2||

Service to the Guru is the most excellent action.

Enshrine the Lord's Name within your heart.

The Word of the Guru's Bani prevails throughout the world; through this Bani, the Lord's Name is obtained. ||3||

He reads the Vedas, but he starts arguments night and day.

He does not remember the Naam, the Name of the Lord; he is bound and gagged by the Messenger of Death.

In the love of duality, he suffers in pain forever; he is deluded by doubt, and confused by the three gunas. ||4||

The Gurmukh is in love with the One Lord alone;

he submerges in his mind the three-phased desire.

Through the True Word of the Shabad, he is liberated forever; he renounces emotional attachment to Maya. ||5||

Those who are so pre-ordained to be imbued, are imbued with love for the Lord.

By Guru's Grace, they are intuitively intoxicated.

Serving the True Guru forever, they find God; He Himself unites them with Himself. ||6||

In attachment to Maya and doubt, the Lord is not found.

Attached to the love of duality, one suffers in pain.

The crimson color lasts for only a few days; all too soon, it fades away. ||7||

So color this mind in the Fear and the Love of God.
