Kabit Savaiye Bhai Gurdas Ji

Page - 603


ਜੈਸੇ ਜਲ ਮਿਲ ਦ੍ਰੁਮ ਸਫਲ ਨਾਨਾ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਰ ਚੰਦਨ ਮਿਲਤ ਸਬ ਚੰਦਨ ਸੁਬਾਸ ਹੈ ।
jaise jal mil drum safal naanaa prakaar chandan milat sab chandan subaas hai |

Just as all trees and plants yield many types of fruits and flowers by their union with water, but the nearness with sandalwood makes the entire vegetation fragrant like sandalwood.

ਜੈਸੇ ਮਿਲ ਪਾਵਕ ਢਰਤ ਪੁਨ ਸੋਈ ਧਾਤ ਪਾਰਸ ਪਰਸ ਰੂਪ ਕੰਚਨ ਪ੍ਰਕਾਸ ਹੈ ।
jaise mil paavak dtarat pun soee dhaat paaras paras roop kanchan prakaas hai |

Just as union with fire melts many metals and on cooling remains the metal that it was, but when touched with philosopher's stone, that metal becomes gold.

ਅਵਰ ਨਖਤ੍ਰ ਬਰਖਤ ਜਲ ਜਲਮਈ ਸ੍ਵਾਂਤਿ ਬੂੰਦ ਸਿੰਧ ਮਿਲ ਮੁਕਤਾ ਬਿਗਾਸ ਹੈ ।
avar nakhatr barakhat jal jalamee svaant boond sindh mil mukataa bigaas hai |

Just as rain falling outside the specific period (Nakshatra) according to the position of stars and planets is just falling of water drops, but when it rains during Swati Nakshatras, and a drop falls on the oyster in the sea, it becomes a pearl.

ਤੈਸੇ ਪਰਵਿਰਤ ਔ ਨਿਵਿਰਤ ਜੋ ਸ੍ਵਭਾਵ ਦੋਊ ਗੁਰ ਮਿਲ ਸੰਸਾਰੀ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰੀ ਅਭਿਆਸੁ ਹੈ ।੬੦੩।
taise paravirat aau nivirat jo svabhaav doaoo gur mil sansaaree nirankaaree abhiaas hai |603|

Similarly, engrossed in maya and liberated of maya's influence are two tendencies in the world. But whatever intentions and inclinations one goes to the True Guru, he acquires the trait of worldly or divinely accordingly. (603)
