O Nanak, meeting the True Guru, the fruits are obtained, and one is blessed with the Glorious Greatness of the Naam. || 4 || 211 WADAHANS, THIRD MEHL: Emotional attachment to Maya is darkness; without the Guru, there is no spiritual wisdom. Those who are attached to the Word of the Shabad understand; those in duality are ruined. || 1 || O my mind, under Guru's Instruction, do good deeds. Dwell forever and ever upon the Lord God, and you shall find the gate of galvation. || 1 || Pause 11 He alone is the treasure of virtue; He Himself gives, and then one receives. Without the Name, all are separated from Him; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, one meets Him. || 2 || Acting in selfishness and egotism they lose, and nothing comes into their hands. But meeting with the True Guru, they find Truth, and merge into the True Name. || 3 || Hope and desire abide in this body, but the Lord's Light shines within as well. O Nanak, the self-willed manmukhs are in bondage, while the Gurmukhs are liberated. || 4 || 3 || WADAHANS, THIRD MEHL: The faces of the happy soul-brides are radiant forever; through the Guru, they are peacefully poised. They constantly enjoy their Husband Lord, eradicating self-conceit from within. || 1 || O my mind, meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. The True Guru has given me this understanding of the Lord. || 1 || Pause || The abandoned brides cry out in suffering; they do not attain the Mansion of the Lord's Presence. In the love of duality, they look ugly; they suffer in pain as they go beyond. || 2 || The virtuous soul-bride constantly chants the Glorious Praises of the Lord; she enshrines the Naam, the Name of the Lord, within her heart. The unvirtuous woman suffers and cries out in pain. || 3 || The One Lord and Master is the Husband Lord of all; He cannot be described at all. O Nanak, He has separated some from Himself, while others are committed to His Name. || 4 || 4 || WADAHANS, THIRD MEHL: The Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam always seems sweet; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, I come to taste it. Through the True Word of the Guru's Bani, I am absorbed in peace and poise; the Dear Lord is enshrined in the mind. ||1|| The Lord, granting His Grace, has led me to meet the True Guru. Through the Perfect True Guru, I meditate on the Name of the Lord. | 1 || Pause I Through Brahma, the hymns of the Vedas were revealed, but the love of Maya spread. The wise one, Shiva, pervades his own home, but he is engrossed in dark passions and excessive egotism. || 2 || Vishnu is always busy reincarnating himself, but who will save the world? The Gurmukhs are imbued with spiritual wisdom in this age; they are rid of the darkness of emotional attachment. || 3 Serving the True Guru, one is saved; the Gurmukh crosses over the worldocean. The detached renunciates are attuned to the True Name; they attain the gate of salvation. Il 4 || The True One is pervading everywhere, deep within; He cherishes all. O Nanak, except for the One, I do not know any other; He is the Merciful Master of all. || 5 || 5 || WADAHANS, THIRD MEHL: The Gurmukh practices true self-discipline, and attains the essence of wisdom. The Gurmukh focuses his meditation on the True One. || 1 ||
