212 That God is ever true, He is the true Lord, and the true Name. He who made this world is and shall be ; He shall neither depart, nor be made to depart. He who created things of different colours, descriptions, and species, Beholdeth His handiwork which attesteth His greatness. He will do what pleaseth Himself ; no order may be issued to Him. He is King, the King of kings, O Nanak ; all remain subject to His will. XXVIII

Make contentment and modesty thine earrings, self-respect thy wallet, meditation the ashes to smear on thy body ; Make thy body, which is only a morsel for death, thy beggar's coat, and faith thy rule of life and thy staff. Make association with men thine Ai Panth, and the conquest of thy heart the conquest of the world.
