- synopsis
- (Translated as in The True Name, Vol 1 on CD-ROM)
- The sutra
- The lord is truth. Truth is his name.
- His praises are sung in endless ways.
- Even while praising they ask for more and more,
- And the lord keeps on giving.
- Then what offering can we make to gain a glimpse of his court?
- And what language shall we speak to endear us to him?
- Nanak says, remember the true name and meditate on its glory in the ambrosial hour.
- Through your actions you receive this body,
- And by his grace the door to salvation opens.
- Nanak says, know then his truth, because he alone is everything.
- He cannot be installed in any temple, nor fashioned by any skill.
- The faultless one exists unto himself.
- Those who serve him attain the glory.
- Nanak says, sing his praises, lord of all attributes.
- Sing and hear only of him; engrave him in your heart.
- So banish sorrow and suffering, and make bliss your abode.
- The guru's word is the sound of sounds, and the Vedas too.
- The lord abides in his words.
- The guru is Shiva, the destroyer; the guru is Vishnu, the sustainer;
- The guru is Brahma, the creator; he is the trio of goddesses -- Parvati, Laxmi and Saraswati.
- However well I know him, he cannot be described.
- He cannot be expressed by words.
- The guru is the secret that solves the riddle.
- He is the benefactor of all. Let me never forget him.
