Peace, poise and bliss are found in the subtle essence of the Naam. The Lord's Saints sing the songs of joy.

I have obtained the Fruitful Vision of Guru Nanak's Darshan, and with my mind and body I meditate on the Lord, Har, Har. ||4||2||49||

Soohee, Fifth Mehl:

The religious rites, rituals and hypocrisies which are seen, are plundered by the Messenger of Death, the ultimate tax collector.

In the state of Nirvaanaa, sing the Kirtan of the Creator's Praises; contemplating Him in meditation, even for an instant, one is saved. ||1||

O Saints, cross over the world-ocean.

One who practices the Teachings of the Saints, by Guru's Grace, is carried across. ||1||Pause||

Millions of cleansing baths at sacred shrines of pilgrimage only fill the mortal with filth in this Dark Age of Kali Yuga.

One who sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, becomes spotlessly pure. ||2||

One may read all the books of the Vedas, the Bible, the Simritees and the Shaastras, but they will not bring liberation.

One who, as Gurmukh, chants the One Word, acquires a spotlessly pure reputation. ||3||

The four castes - the Kh'shaatriyas, Brahmins, Soodras and Vaishyas - are equal in respect to the teachings.

Section 19 - Raag Soohee - Part 021

One who, as Gurmukh, chants the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is saved. In this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, O Nanak, God is permeating the hearts of each and every being. ||4||3||50||

Soohee, Fifth Mehl:

Whatever God causes to happen is accepted, by those who are attuned to the Love of the Lord's Name.

Those who fall at the Feet of God are respected everywhere. ||1||

O my Lord, no one is as great as the Lord's Saints.

The devotees are in harmony with their God; He is in the water, the land, and the sky. ||1||Pause||

Millions of sinners have been saved in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; the Messenger of Death does not even approach them.

Those who have been separated from the Lord, for countless incarnations, are reunited with the Lord again. ||2||

Attachment to Maya, doubt and fear are eradicated, when one enters the Sanctuary of the Saints.

Whatever wishes one harbors, are obtained from the Saints. ||3||

How can I describe the glory of the Lord's humble servants? They are pleasing to their God.

Says Nanak, those who meet the True Guru, become independent of all obligations. ||4||4||51||

Soohee, Fifth Mehl:

Giving me Your Hand, You saved me from the terrible fire, when I sought Your Sanctuary.

Deep within my heart, I respect Your strength; I have abandoned all other hopes. ||1||

O my Sovereign Lord, when You enter my consciousness, I am saved.

You are my support. I count on You. Meditating on You, I am saved. ||1||Pause||
