Aus dem Heiligen Sri Guru Granth Sahib des Sikhismus: Guru Nanak, Seite 14-16, Teil 1 von 2

The True Lord, the Fromless One, is Himself in His Own Place. I have heard, over and over again, and so I tell the tale; as it pleases You, Lord, please instill within me the yearning for You. You are the One True Lord and Master of all the other beings, of so many worlds. The pleasures of gold and silver, the pleasures of women, the pleasure of the fragrance of sandalwood, the pleasure of horses, the pleasure of a soft bed in a palace, the pleasure of sweet treats and the pleasure of hearty meals – these pleasures of the human body are so numerous; how can the Naam, the Name of the Lord, find its dwelling in the heart?
