ਭਈ ਪਰਾਪਤਿ ਮਾਨੁਖ ਦੇਹੁਰੀਆ ॥ ਗੋਤ ਿੰ ਦ ਤਮਲਣ ਕੀ ਇਹ ਿੇਰੀ ਰੀਆ ॥ ਅਵਤਰ ਕਾਜ ਿੇਰੈ ਤਕਿੈ ਨ ਕਾਮ ॥ ਤਮਲੁ ਸਾਧਸਿੰਗਤਿ ਭਜੁ ਕੇਵਲ ਨਾਮ ॥੧॥
This human body has been given to you.
This is your chance to meet the Lord of the
Universe. Nothing else will work. Join the
Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy;
vibrate and meditate on the Jewel of the
Naam. ||1|| 12
You are a wrestler
Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachment and Pride
are your opponents.
ਹਉ ਗੋਸਾਈ ਦਾ ਪਤਹਲਵਾਨੜਾ ॥ ਮੈ ਗੁਰ ਤਮਤਲ ਉਚ ਦੁਮਾਲੜਾ॥ ਸਭ ਹੋਈ ਤ ਿੰਝ ਇਕਠੀਆ ਦਯੁ ੈਠਾ ਵੇਖੈ ਆਤਪ ਜੀਉ ॥੧੭॥
I am a wrestler; I belong to the Lord of the
World. I met with the Guru, and I have tied a
tall, plumed turban. All have gathered to
watch the wrestling match, and the Merciful
Lord Himself is seated to behold it. ||17||
ਵਾਿ ਵਜਤਨ ਟਿੰਮਕ ਭੇਰੀਆ ॥ ਮਲ ਲਥੇ ਲੈਦੇ ਫੇਰੀਆ ॥ ਤਨਹਿੇ ਪਿੰ ਤਜ ਜੁਆਨ ਮੈ ਗੁਰ ਥਾਪੀ ਤਦਿੀ ਕਿੰ ਤਿ ਜੀਉ ॥੧੮॥ The bugles play and the drums beat. The
wrestlers enter the arena and circle around.
I have thrown the five challengers to the
ground, and the Guru has patted me on the
back. ||18||
ਸਭ ਇਕਠੇ ਹੋਇ ਆਇਆ ॥ ਘਤਰ ਜਾਸਤਨ ਵਾਟ ਵਟਾਇਆ ॥ ਗੁਰਮੁਤਖ ਲਾਹਾ ਲੈ ਗਏ ਮਨਮੁਖ ਚਲੇ ਮੂਲੁ ਗਵਾਇ ਜੀਉ ॥੧੯॥
All have gathered together,
but we shall return home by different routes.
The Gurmukhs reap their profits and leave,
while the self-willed manmukhs lose their
investment and depart. ||19||

Path of Love
ਵੇਕੀ ਵੇਕੀ ਜਿੰ ਿ ਉਪਾਏ ॥ ਦੁਇ ਪਿੰ ਦੀ ਦੁਇ ਰਾਹ ਚਲਾਏ ॥ ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੇ ਤਵਣੁ ਮੁਕਤਿ ਨ ਹੋਈ ਸਚੁ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਤਪ ਲਾਹਾ ਹੇ ॥੨॥ He created the beings of different kinds. The
two travelers have set out in two directions.
Without the Perfect Guru, no one is
liberated. Doing Namm Jap, one profits. ||2||

ਗੁਰਮਿੀ ਨਾਮੁ ਮਿੰ ਤਨ ਵਸਾਏ ॥ ਅਨਤਦਨੁ ਨਾਮੁ ਤਧਆਏ ਸਾਚਾ ਇਸੁ ਜਗ ਮਤਹ ਨਾਮੋ ਲਾਹਾ ਹੇ ॥੭॥ Through Gurmat, the Naam comes to dwell
within the mind.
Night and day, meditate on the Naam, the
Name of the True Lord, and earn the profit of
the Naam in this world. ||7||
God Thoughts
ਹਟਵਾਣੀ ਧਨ ਮਾਲ ਹਾਟੁ ਕੀਿੁ ॥ ਜੂਆਰੀ ਜੂਏ ਮਾਤਹ ਚੀਿੁ ॥ ਅਮਲੀ ਜੀਵੈ ਅਮਲੁ ਖਾਇ ॥ ਤਿਉ ਹਤਰ ਜਨੁ ਜੀਵੈ ਹਤਰ ਤਧਆਇ ॥੧॥ The shopkeeper deals in merchandise for
profit. The gambler's chit is focused on
gambling. The opium addict lives by
consuming opium. In the same way, the
humble servant of the Lord lives by
meditating on Har. ||1|| 1180
Use these 4 days to remember God
No outside conversations just Simran.
ਗੁਰ ਿੁਠੈ ਹਤਰ ਪਰਭੁ ਮੇਤਲਆ ਸਭ ਤਕਲਤਵਖ ਕਤਟ ਤਵਕਾਰ ॥ ਤਜਨਾ ਹਤਰ ਹਤਰ ਨਾਮੁ ਤਧਆਇਆ ਜਨ ਨਾਨਕ ਤਿਨ੍ਹ ਜੈਕਾਰੁ ॥੨੯॥ The Guru, in His Pleasure, has united me
with the Lord God; He has cut away all my
sinful mistakes. Servant Nanak celebrates
the victory of those who meditate on the
Namm of Har, Har. ||29|| 1416
