Holy Avtar Vani - Shabad No. 70
Jyon ik khamba apne sir te chhat da bojh uthanda ey;
Tyon bande da man gur pason kul sahare panda ey.
Jyon balde hoye Deepak rahin door hanera ho janda ey;
Tyon banda gur darshan karke rooh apni chamkanda ey.
Jyon bande nun nhere andar chanan rah te pa denda ey;
Kahe avtar mile jo sadhu rab nun jhat dikhla denda ey.
Meaning
Just as a pillar holds the weight of the roof; man's mind finds all the support and guidance from the True Master. Just as a lighted lamp dispels the darkness of roadside; a person's soul gets illuminated by getting the glimpse of the true Master. Just as light shows a man his path when it is dark Avtar says, if one meets a true saint, he then reveals God instantly to him.
