“One should remember the long and short of Shri Sadguru’s teachings, And serve Guru with reverence and love, All deceptions of the world are like optical illusions or the mirage, And sensualities are like sorrows or afflictions, So let Surat or consciousness be withdrawn from all these, And focused only on the Almighty, who is unexpressed, pervasive and pervading, But shines beyond all, One should love such unborn, endless and infinite God, Individual souls are all parts of the supreme sovereign, As is the relation of the vast firmament with all its parts. However, all distinctions disappear in the dissolution of forms, Both conscious and non-conscious forms of nature come to exist, As a result of the sportive delight of the Supreme sovereign, Never say that nature is unborn and without any beginning, No sorrow is greater than getting into the cycle of birth and death, Devotion to God is a must for breaking this cycle.” “O Guru! Generate in me the feelings of service and love to you, I pray that you never allow your love to cease showering on me even for a moment, Traversing through the four species of life for ages, I got variously afflicted, But even today, I have not been able to secure your love and devotion, And ever remained separated from you; My mind every moment revels in many worldly attractions and is never detached from them, I ever remain oblivious of the significance and the ardour of devotion, And as such bear afflictions with pride; O my Guru! You have now kindly acquainted me with the modes of love, And awakened the feelings of an unfortunate soul, I don’t have either self-motivating force or the support of others, So that I may strive for achieving devotion to you, But if the generous Guru helps, it is possible to get that strength, O Guru! Bless me so that my vision stays on the tenth door, And consciousness is fully immersed in singing of hymns, As it gets immersed in various attractions of the world; May the light divine ever guide my soul, And the divine melody become audible, And remembrance may keep ascending the sky! Thus getting lost in the quintessential word, the soul is able to locate the original home, All imaginable traces of selfhood in mind, words and deeds, May get contained within you! All hopes and predicaments of the world, all enmities and affections of the world be forgotten, And only my devotion to the lotus-feet of Guru remains, The very rush of sensuality, anger and greed may not torment, And all my attachments to people and property must wane, Such should be your compassion O Guru! It will help abundantly, Lying at your lotus-feet, I pray you kindly adopt me, Flame of yourself and the symphony of tunes, Day and night I may well peruse O Guru! Kindly drop your unequaled compassion.”
