- synopsis
- (Translated as in The True Name, Vol 2 on CD-ROM)
- The sutra
- If my single tongue becomes a hundred thousand,
- And this hundred thousand becomes twenty times more,
- With each tongue would I sing a hundred thousand times
- The only name of the master of the world.
- These are the steps of the name of the lord.
- By following them does one become twenty-one.
- Hearing them speak of heaven's glory,
- Even those who are like lowly worms become ambitious to emulate them.
- Nanak says, he is attained only by his grace.
- But the false claimants spread their boastful tales.
- The power lies neither in speaking nor in silence;
- The power lies neither in asking nor in giving;
- The power lies neither in living nor in dying;
- The power lies neither in the wealth of kingdoms nor the resolves of the mind;
- The power lies neither in remembrance nor in knowledge of the divine;
- The power lies neither in the world nor in the devices to be rid of samsara.
- The real power lies in his hands -- who creates and keeps on watching.
- Nanak says, no one is high and no one is low before him.
