ਜਉ ਲਉ ਅਨਰਸ ਬਸਿ ਤਉ ਲਉ ਨਹੀ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਰਸੁ ਜਉ ਲਉ ਆਨ ਧਿਆਨ ਆਪਾ ਆਪੁ ਨਹੀ ਦੇਖੀਐ ।
jau lau anaras bas tau lau nahee prem ras jau lau aan dhiaan aapaa aap nahee dekheeai |So long a human being remains absorbed in worldly attractions and pleasures, he cannot know love. So long his attention is focused on something else, he cannot realize self.
ਜਉ ਲਉ ਆਨ ਗਿਆਨ ਤਉ ਲਉ ਨਹੀ ਅਧਿਆਤਮ ਗਿਆਨ ਜਉ ਲਉ ਨਾਦ ਬਾਦ ਨ ਅਨਾਹਦ ਬਿਸੇਖੀਐ ।
jau lau aan giaan tau lau nahee adhiaatam giaan jau lau naad baad na anaahad bisekheeai |(Renouncing Lord) as long as one is busy acquiring knowledge of mundane worldly things, he remains bereft of spiritual wisdom. As long as one remains involved in worldly pleasures one cannot hear the unstruck celestial music of divine word.
ਜਉ ਲਉ ਅਹੰਬੁਧਿ ਸੁਧਿ ਹੋਇ ਨ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਗਤਿ ਜਉ ਲਉ ਨ ਲਖਾਵੈ ਤਉ ਲਉ ਅਲਖ ਨ ਲੇਖੀਐ ।
jau lau ahanbudh sudh hoe na antar gat jau lau na lakhaavai tau lau alakh na lekheeai |As long as one remains proud and arrogant, one cannot realise self. Till such time True Guru does not initiate a person with the boon of Lord's name and propitiate the Lord, one cannot realise the 'formless God'.
ਸਤਿ ਰੂਪ ਸਤਿਨਾਮ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਗਿਆਨ ਧਿਆਨ ਏਕ ਹੀ ਅਨੇਕ ਮੇਕ ਏਕ ਏਕ ਭੇਖੀਐ ।੧੨।
sat roop satinaam satigur giaan dhiaan ek hee anek mek ek ek bhekheeai |12|The knowledge of Almighty lies in the consecrating words of the True Guru that leads one to reality of His name and form. By uniting his mind with His name, the Lord who prevails in various forms gets revealed. (12)
