Holy Avtar Vani - Shabad No. 179
Koi prani is jag andar ho jaye be sahara je;
Jeevan nayiya gote khaye mile na koi kinara je.
Rishtedar sabhe durkaaran mile na koi duaara je;
Agge pichhe dukh musibat baura feere vichara je.
Dukh shareerak hovan lakkhan feere oh mara mara je;
Maya vi je kand vikhave mile na koi sahara je.
Sabh padarath russe hovan dukkhi te gamgeen rahe;
Dhoi mile na kitte vi jekar har ik shai ton heen rahe.
Aisa prani je dar aave satgur gale laganda ey;
Kahe avtar oh jaan prabhu nun dukkhan ton bach janda ey.
Meaning
Here Baba Avtar Singh ji says, that one who doesn’t get any support in this world, on seeking refuge of the True Master, he can avoid all sorrows. If a person becomes totally helpless in this world. If the boat of his life is sinking and finding no shore. If all his kinsmen shun him and he has no place to go. If he finds pain and misery wherever he goes, and the poor man wanders in wilderness. If his body suffers from numerous diseases and he moves from door to door helplessly. If he fails to earn money, and gets no support whatsoever. If all material possessions are displeased with him and he suffers from pain and sorrow. If he finds no solace, and he is deprived of everything in life. Let such a person approach the True Master, and He will own him. He realises God (from the True Master) and stands rescued from all the sufferings.
