in the Company of this humble servant, the Lord's Name comes to mind.
He Himself is liberated, and He liberates the universe.
O Nanak, to that humble servant, I bow in reverence forever. ||8||23||
Salok:
I worship and adore the Perfect Lord God. Perfect is His Name.
O Nanak, I have obtained the Perfect One; I sing the Glorious Praises of the Perfect Lord. ||1||
Ashtapadee:
Listen to the Teachings of the Perfect Guru;
see the Supreme Lord God near you.
With each and every breath, meditate in remembrance on the Lord of the Universe,
and the anxiety within your mind shall depart.
Abandon the waves of fleeting desire,
and pray for the dust of the feet of the Saints.
Renounce your selfishness and conceit and offer your prayers.
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, cross over the ocean of fire.
Fill your stores with the wealth of the Lord.
Nanak bows in humility and reverence to the Perfect Guru. ||1||
Happiness, intuitive peace, poise and bliss
in the Company of the Holy, meditate on the Lord of supreme bliss.
You shall be spared from hell - save your soul!
