Gur darshan da fal hai vadda man nun paak bananda ey; Gur charna di dhoorhi pa ke man maila dhul janda ey. Jehrha gur di sangat karke yash hari da ganda ey; Nirankar de mehlan da oh jan hi rasta panda ey. Suniye jekar vachan guru da kann nun lazzat mildi ey; Door dilan di bhatkan hove dil nun rahat mildi ey. Poore satgur da gur- mantar lafani kehlanda ey; Poora satgur jo kujh dasse na anda na janda ey. Beant hai sifat guru di eh na koi ulekh sake; Kahe avtar je aap eh chahe taan koi isnun vekh sake. |

Great is the reward of the divine glimpse of the True Master, it purifies the mind; With the dust of the True Master's holy feet, the dirt of the mind gets washed away. The one who sings the glory of God after meeting the True Master; Only such a person finds the path leading to the Mansion of the Formless One-Nirankar. By listening to the word of divine wisdom of the True Master, the ears enjoy the bliss; The perturbed hearts gets peace and becomes tranquil. The word of the perfect True Master is called immortal; Whatever is revealed by the True Master is eternal, and does not change. The glory of the True Master is immense and beyond description; Avtar says, God can be perceived only if the True Master himself so wills. |
Meaning
Remember the Almighty and chant ‘Tu hi , Tu hi Nirankar’ (One Thou Formless) with every breath that you take. Purify your body and mind by drinking the blissful nectar of remembrance (of the Almighty God) to your heart and soul’s content. The one who has received enlightenment from the True Master visualizes nothing but the Super Soul at all places, in all beings. Enlightenment then becomes his greatest wealth; in God’s presence he is able to enjoy youth and beauty. He who is able to drink the nectar of enlightenment with the lips of love, is truly fortunate. This enlightenment manifests in every pore of his being and he lives only by this Truth. He keeps God’s Name on his lips while he is waking, sleeping, eating or drinking (practically almost always). Avtar says, surrendering to the True Master is a rarity though.
