They stubbornly practice ritualistic postures, standing on their heads.

They are afflicted with the disease of egotism, and their faults are not covered up.

They burn in the fire of sexual frustration, unresolved anger and compulsive desire.

He alone is liberated, O Nanak, whose True Guru is Good. ||2||3||36||

Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl, Seventh House:

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

My thirst has been quenched, meeting with the Holy.

The five thieves have run away, and I am in peace and poise; singing, singing, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, I obtain the Blessed Vision of my Beloved. ||1||Pause||

That which God has done for me - how can I do that for Him in return?

I make my heart a sacrifice, a sacrifice, a sacrifice, a sacrifice, a sacrifice to You. ||1||

First, I fall at the feet of the Saints; I meditate, meditate, lovingly attuned to You.

O God, where is that Place, where You contemplate all Your beings?

Countless slaves sing Your Praises.

He alone meets You, who is pleasing to Your Will. Servant Nanak remains absorbed in his Lord and Master.

You, You, You alone, Lord. ||2||1||37||

Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl, Eighth House:

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

Give up your pride and your self-conceit; the Loving, Merciful Lord is watching over all. O mind, become the dust of His Feet. ||1||Pause||

Through the Mantra of the Lord's Saints, experience the spiritual wisdom and meditation of the Lord of the World. ||1||

Within your heart, sing the Praises of the Lord of the Universe, and be lovingly attuned to His Lotus Feet. He is the Fascinating Lord, Merciful to the meek and the humble.

O Merciful Lord, please bless me with Your Kindness and Compassion.

Nanak begs for the Gift of the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

I have abandoned emotional attachment, doubt and all egotistical pride. ||2||1||38||

Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

Speaking of God, filth and pollution are burnt away; This comes by meeting with the Guru, and not by any other efforts. ||1||Pause||

Section 32 - Raag Kaanraa - Part 013

Making pilgrimages to sacred rivers, observing the six rituals, wearing matted and tangled hair, performing fire sacrifices and carrying ceremonial walking sticks - none of these are of any use. ||1||

All sorts of efforts, austerities, wanderings and various speeches - none of these will lead you to find the Lord's Place.

I have considered all considerations, O Nanak, but peace comes only by vibrating and meditating on the Name. ||2||2||39||

Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl, Ninth House:

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

The Purifier of sinners, the Lover of His devotees, the Destroyer of fear - He carries us across to the other side. ||1||Pause||
