Rh The world is ill, the Name is its medicine; without the True One the filth of sin attacheth to it.

The Guru's word is pure and ever diffuseth light; ever bathe in such a true place of pilgrimage.

Filth attacheth not to the true; what filth have they to wash off?

Twine for thyself a garland of virtues, and then what shalt thou have to grieve for?

He who chasteneth himself by meditation shall be saved; he shall save others and never again return to a womb.

The supreme mediator is himself the philosopher's stone; the true are pleasing to the True One.

They feel happiness and true joy night and day; their sorrow and their sins depart.

The true Guru hath shown God to him who hath obtained the true Name; no impurity attacheth to him in whose heart is the True One.

Association with the congregation of the saints is the perfect ablution.

Sweet is the voice of the singer who singeth of God.

Praising the True One and obeying the true Guru are in my opinion equal to alms-deeds, and works of mercy.

He who loveth the society of the Beloved shall easily bathe in the society of those who are the truest of the true as his Tribeni.

Worship the one true God who ever giveth and whose gifts ever increase.

Salvation is obtained by associating with saints; God associateth with the company of the saints him on whom He looketh with favour.

Every one giveth accounts of God; how great shall I say He is?

I by myself am a blockhead, low, and ignorant, but I understand Him from the Guru's description.
