Kabit Savaiye Bhai Gurdas Ji

Page - 117


ਸੁਪਨ ਚਰਿਤ੍ਰ ਚਿਤ੍ਰ ਜਾਗਤ ਨ ਦੇਖੀਅਤ ਤਾਰਕਾ ਮੰਡਲ ਪਰਭਾਤਿ ਨ ਦਿਖਾਈਐ ।
supan charitr chitr jaagat na dekheeat taarakaa manddal parabhaat na dikhaaeeai |

Just as dream events cannot be seen while awake, just as stars are not visible after sunrise;

ਤਰਵਰ ਛਾਇਆ ਲਘੁ ਦੀਰਘ ਚਪਲ ਬਲ ਤੀਰਥ ਪੁਰਬ ਜਾਤ੍ਰਾ ਥਿਰ ਨ ਰਹਾਈਐ ।
taravar chhaaeaa lagh deeragh chapal bal teerath purab jaatraa thir na rahaaeeai |

Just as the shadow of a tree keeps changing in size with the falling rays of the sun; and the pilgrimage to the holy places does not last for ever.

ਨਦੀ ਨਾਵ ਕੋ ਸੰਜੋਗ ਲੋਗ ਬਹੁਰਿਓ ਨ ਮਿਲੈ ਗੰਧ੍ਰਬ ਨਗਰ ਮ੍ਰਿਗ ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ ਬਿਲਾਈਐ ।
nadee naav ko sanjog log bahurio na milai gandhrab nagar mrig trisanaa bilaaeeai |

As the fellow travellers of a boat do not get to travel together again, as the presence of water due to mirage or the imaginary abode of gods (in space) is an illusion.

ਤੈਸੇ ਮਾਇਐ ਮੋਹ ਧ੍ਰੋਹ ਕੁਟੰਬ ਸਨੇਹ ਦੇਹ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਈਐ ।੧੧੭।
taise maaeaai moh dhroh kuttanb saneh deh guramukh sabad surat liv laaeeai |117|

So does a Guru-conscious person regards mammon, attachment and love of the body an illusion and he keeps his consciousness focused on the divine word of the Guru. (117)
