ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਲਿਵਲੀਨ ਅਕੁਲੀਨ ਭਏ ਚਤਰ ਬਰਨ ਮਿਲਿ ਸਾਧਸੰਗ ਜਾਨੀਐ ।
sabad surat livaleen akuleen bhe chatar baran mil saadhasang jaaneeai |

With the union of the divine word and mind, a Guru-conscious person becomes free of high and low caste based differences. According to them, joining the ideal assembly of saintly people, the four castes become one only.

ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਲਿਵ ਲੀਨ ਜਲ ਮੀਨ ਗਤਿ ਗੁਹਜ ਗਵਨ ਜਲ ਪਾਨ ਉਨਮਾਨੀਐ ।
sabad surat liv leen jal meen gat guhaj gavan jal paan unamaaneeai |

One who is engrossed in the divine word should be considered like a fish in water who lives and eat in the water. Thus the Guru-conscious person latently continue with the practicing of Naam Simran (meditation) and enjoy the elixir of divine name.

ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਲਿਵ ਲੀਨ ਪਰਬੀਨ ਭਏ ਪੂਰਨ ਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਏਕੈ ਏਕ ਪਹਿਚਾਨੀਐ ।
sabad surat liv leen parabeen bhe pooran braham ekai ek pahichaaneeai |

Guru-oriented people absorbed in the divine word become aware completely. They acknowledge the presence of One Lord in all the living beings.

ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਲਿਵ ਲੀਨ ਪਗ ਰੀਨ ਭਏ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਉਰ ਆਨੀਐ ।੧੪੭।
sabad surat liv leen pag reen bhe guramukh sabad surat ur aaneeai |147|

Those who are engrossed in the Gur Shabad (Divine Word) become humble of disposition and feel like dust of the feet of holy men. It is because they are perpetually practicing meditation on Lord's name. (147)
