Ang-501 — Chapter 25

Goojaree, Padhay Of Naam Dayv Jee, First House:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

If You gave me an empire, then what glory would be in it for me?

If You made me beg for charity, what would it take away from me? ||1||

Meditate and vibrate upon the Lord, O my mind, and you shall obtain the state of Nirvaanaa.

You shall not have to come and go in reincarnation any longer. ||1||Pause||

You created all, and You lead them astray in doubt.

They alone understand, unto whom You give understanding. ||2||

Meeting the True Guru, doubt is dispelled.

Who else should I worship? I can see no other. ||3||

One stone is lovingly decorated,

while another stone is walked upon.

If one is a god, then the other must also be a god.

Says Naam Dayv, I serve the Lord. ||4||1||

Goojaree, First House:

He does not have even a trace of impurity - He is beyond impurity. He is fragrantly scented - He has come to take His Seat in my mind.

No one saw Him come - who can know Him, O Siblings of Destiny? ||1||

Who can describe Him? Who can understand Him? The all-pervading Lord has no ancestors, O Siblings of Destiny. ||1||Pause||

As the path of a bird's flight across the sky cannot be seen,

and the path of a fish through the water cannot be seen;||2||

As the mirage leads one to mistake the sky for a pitcher filled with water

- so is God, the Lord and Master of Naam Dayv, who fits these three comparisons. ||3||2||

Goojaree, Padhay Of Ravi Daas Jee, Third House:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

The calf has contaminated the milk in the teats.

The bumble bee has contaminated the flower, and the fish the water. ||1||

O mother, where shall I find any offering for the Lord's worship?

I cannot find any other flowers worthy of the incomparable Lord. ||1||Pause||

The snakes encircle the sandalwood trees.

Poison and nectar dwell there together. ||2||

Even with incense, lamps, offerings of food and fragrant flowers,

how are Your slaves to worship You? ||3||

I dedicate and offer my body and mind to You.

By Guru's Grace, I attain the immaculate Lord. ||4||

I cannot worship You, nor offer You flowers.

Says Ravi Daas, what shall my condition be hereafter? ||5||1||

Goojaree, Padhay Of Trilochan Jee, First House:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

You have not cleansed the filth from within yourself, although outwardly, you wear the dress of a renunciate.

In the heart-lotus of your self, you have not recognized God - why have you become a Sannyaasee? ||1||
