Meditate on the Lord, and read and reflect upon the Guru's Shabad.

Subdue your ego and meditate on the Lord.

Meditate on the Lord, and be imbued with fear and love of the True One.

O Nanak, enshrine the Naam within your heart, through the Guru's Teachings. ||8||3||25||

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

Raag Aasaa, Third Mehl, Ashtapadees, Eighth House, Kaafee:

Peace emanates from the Guru; He puts out the fire of desire.

The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is obtained from the Guru; it is the greatest greatness. ||1||

Keep the One Name in your consciousness, O my Siblings of Destiny.

Seeing the world on fire, I have hurried to the Lord's Sanctuary. ||1||Pause||

Spiritual wisdom emanates from the Guru; reflect upon the supreme essence of reality.

Through the Guru, the Lord's Mansion and His Court are attained; His devotional worship is overflowing with treasures. ||2||

The Gurmukh meditates on the Naam; he achieves reflective meditation and understanding.

The Gurmukh is the Lord's devotee, immersed in His Praises; the Infinite Word of the Shabad dwells within him. ||3||

Happiness emanates from the Gurmukh; he never suffers pain.

The Gurmukh conquers his ego, and his mind is immaculately pure. ||4||

Meeting the True Guru, self-conceit is removed, and understanding of the three worlds is obtained.

The Immaculate Divine Light is pervading and permeating everywhere; one's light merges into the Light. ||5||

The Perfect Guru instructs, and one's intellect becomes sublime.

A cooling and soothing peace comes within, and through the Naam, peace is obtained. ||6||

One meets the Perfect True Guru only when the Lord bestows His Glance of Grace.

All sins and vices are eradicated, and one shall never again suffer pain or distress. ||7||

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 079

Glory is in His Hands; He bestows His Name, and attaches us to it.

O Nanak, the treasure of the Naam abides within the mind, and glory is obtained. ||8||4||26||

Aasaa, Third Mehl:

Listen, O mortal: enshrine His Name within your mind; He shall come to meet with you, O my Sibling of Destiny.

Night and day, center your consciousness on true devotional worship of the True Lord. ||1||

Meditate on the One Naam, and you shall find peace, O my Siblings of Destiny.

Eradicate egotism and duality, and your glory shall be glorious. ||1||Pause||

The angels, humans and silent sages long for this devotional worship, but without the True Guru, it cannot be attained.

The Pandits, the religious scholars, and the astrologers read their books, but they do not understand. ||2||

He Himself keeps all in His Hand; nothing else can be said.

Whatever He gives, is received. The Guru has imparted this understanding to me. ||3||
