-761|| 5 || My comings and goings have ended; the Formless Lord now dwells within my mind. His limits cannot be found; He is lofty and exalted, inaccessible and infinite. One who forgets His God, shall die and be reincarnated, hundreds of thousands of times. || 6 || They alone bear true love for their God, within whose minds He Himself dwells. So dwell only with those who share their virtues; chant and meditate on God, twenty-four hours a day. They are attuned to the Love of the Transcendent Lord; all their sorrows and afflictions are dispelled. || 7 || You are the Creator, You are the cause of causes; You are the One and the many. You are All-powerful, You are present everywhere; You are the subtle intellect, the clear wisdom. Nanak chants and meditates forever on the Naam, the Support of the humble devotees. || 8 || 1 || 3
RAAG SOOHEE, FIFTH MEHL, ASHTAPADEES, TENTH HOUSE, KAAFEE:
ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU: Even though I have made mistakes, and even though I have been wrong, I am still called Yours, O my Lord and Master. Those who enshrine love for another, die regretting and repenting. || 1 || I shall never leave my Husband Lord's side. My Beloved Lover is always and forever beautiful. He is my hope and inspiration. || 1 || Pause || You are my Best Friend; You are my relative. I am so proud of you. And when you dwell within me, I am at peace. I am without honor - You are my honor. || 2 11 And when you are pleased with me, O treasure of mercy, then I do not see any other. Please grant me this blessing, that that I may forever dwell upon You and cherish You within my heart. || 3 || Let my feet walk on Your Path, and let my eyes behold the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan. With my ears, I will listen to Your Sermon, if the Guru becomes merciful to me. II 4 || Hundreds of thousands and millions do not equal even one hair of Yours, O my Beloved. You are the King of kings; I cannot even describe Your Glorious Praises. || 5 || Your brides are countless; they are all greater than I am. Please bless me with Your Glance of Grace, even for an instant; please bless me with Your Darshan, that I may revel in Your Love. || 6 || Seeing Him, my mind is comforted and consoled, and my sins and mistakes are far removed. How could I ever forget Him, O my mother? He is permeating and pervading everywhere. || 7 || In humility, I bowed down in surrender to Him, and He naturally met me. I have received what was pre-ordained for me, O Nanak, with the help and assistance of the Saints. || 8 | 1 || 4 | SOOHEE, FIFTH MEHL: The Simritees, the Vedas, the Puraanas and the other holy scriptures proclaim that without the Naam, everything is false and worthless. ||1|| The infinite treasure of the Naam abides within the minds of the devotees. Birth and death, attachment and suffering, are erased in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. || 1 || Pause II Those who indulge in attachment, conflict and egotism shall surely weep and cry. Those who are separated from the Naam shall never find any peace. || 2 || Crying out, "Mine! Mine!", he is bound in bondage. Entangled in Maya, he is reincarnated in heaven and hell. || 3 || Searching, searching, searching, I have come to understand the essence of reality. Without the Naam, there is no peace at all, and the mortal will surely fail.
