He is the Greatest.


English Translation:
Pauree:
I am a worm - how can I praise You, O Lord; Your glorious greatness is so great!
You are inaccessible, merciful and unapproachable; You Yourself unite us with Yourself.
I have no other friend except You; in the end, You alone will be my Companion and Support.
You save those who enter Your Sanctuary.
O Nanak, He is care-free; He has no greed at all. ||20||1||

I need to ponder on this phrase (the rahao tuk). Could you explain how to make a manmukh like me understand the essence of this Gurbani verse - how it relates to today's living. Thanks in advance.

In the following Shabad Bhagat Kabir Ji is telling us the way.

First he is asking the question:
When we realize that 'I am not body' what happens to us?

Then he answers:
We are merged with the 'Word'.

This Shabad is realy beautiful. He also explains further that we dont need to do yoga abhyaas of holding breath in Sushmana nari, as real Bhagti is -coming under Guru's Sharan- Guru is our Sushmana, not the body's point where Sushmana is.

English Translation: (source: SikhiToTheMax)

Gauree, Kabeer Jee:
When the body dies, where does the soul go?
It is absorbed into the untouched, unstruck melody of the Word of the Shabad.
Only one who knows the Lord realizes Him.
The mind is satisfied and satiated, like the mute who eats the sugar candy and just smiles, without speaking. ||1||
Such is the spiritual wisdom which the Lord has imparted.
O mind, hold your breath steady within the central channel of the Sushmanaa. ||1||Pause||
Adopt such a Guru, that you shall not have to adopt another again.
Dwell in such a state, that you shall never have to dwell in any other.
Embrace such a meditation, that you shall never have to embrace any other.
Die in such a way, that you shall never have to die again. ||2||
Turn your breath away from the left channel, and away from the right channel, and unite them in the central channel of the Sushmanaa.
At their confluence within your mind, take your bath there without water.
To look upon all with an impartial eye - let this be your daily occupation.
Contemplate this essence of reality - what else is there to contemplate? ||3||
Water, fire, wind, earth and ether
adopt such a way of life and you shall be close to the Lord.
Says Kabeer, meditate on the Immaculate Lord.
Go to that home, which you shall never have to leave. ||4||18||

The above Shabad Kirtan is beutifull.

There is this line in this Shabad:


dwgy hoih su rn mih jUJih ibnu dwgy Big jweI ]
daagay hohi so ran meh joojheh bin daagay bhag jaa-ee.
Those who are branded with Your brand fight bravely in battle; those without Your brand run away.
swDU hoie su Bgiq pCwnY hir ley KjwnY pweI ]3]
saaDhoo ho-ay so bhagat pachhaanai har la-ay khajaanai paa-ee. ||3||
One who becomes a Holy person, appreciates the value of devotional worship to the Lord. The Lord places him in His treasury. ||3|| source:ham kookar tayray darbaar




Branded with Waheguru's Brand(DAAGAY=Gurmukh)- only those can know how to fight with Vikaars, and are able to fight, able to face them boldly. All the others(BIN DAAGAY=MANMUKH), they cannt stand in the battle field, they serve the vikaars instead, become their Gulaam, dont have the ability to fight, they burn in the fire of all the vikaars: jealousy, anger, lies, lust, greed, worldly love, Ego and all their brothers and sisters.

Is there anyone who will sing of the Beloved Lord?

ਸਰਬ ਕਲਿਆਣ ਸੂਖ ਸਚੁ ਪਾਵੈ ਰਹਾਉ

Surely, this will bring all pleasures and comforts. ||Pause||

ਬਨੁ ਬਨੁ ਖੋਜਤ ਫਿਰਤ ਬੈਰਾਗੀ
Ban ban kẖojaṯ firaṯ bairāgī.
The renunciate goes out into the woods, searching for Him.

ਬਿਰਲੇ ਕਾਹੂ ਏਕ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਗੀ
Birlė kāhū ėk liv lāgī.

ਜਿਨਿ ਹਰਿ ਪਾਇਆ ਸੇ ਵਡਭਾਗੀ ॥੧॥
Jin har pā&shy;i&shy;ā sė vadbẖāgī. ||1||
Those who find the Lord are very fortunate and blessed. ||1||

ਬ੍ਰਹਮਾਦਿਕ ਸਨਕਾਦਿਕ ਚਾਹੈ

ਜੋਗੀ ਜਤੀ ਸਿਧ ਹਰਿ ਆਹੈ
Jogī jaṯī siḏẖ har āhai.
the Yogis, celibates and Siddhas yearn for the Lord.

ਜਿਸਹਿ ਪਰਾਪਤਿ ਸੋ ਹਰਿ ਗੁਣ ਗਾਹੈ ॥੨॥
Jisahi parāpaṯ so har guṇ gāhai. ||2||

This is another sava-yay by Bhagat Mathura on Ang 1404 of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Maharaj. Marthura was one of several Hindu poets whose praise of Guru Ram Das is based on his understanding that the jyote or Divine Light of Satguru was perfectly realized by Guru Ran Das. Praise of the Guru is praise of the Sat Guru. The Bhagat Marhura teaches us how to worship and adore. God showered his blessings on all beings. On Guru Ram Das He showered the blessing of His Naam. Though meditation, praise and renunciation may gain us His blessings, it is only ithrough selfless service to the Satguru that doubt runs away, pain is eradicated, and celestial peace spontaneously wells up.


ਜਾ ਕਉ ਮੁਨਿ ਧ੍ਯ੍ਯਾਨੁ ਧਰੈ ਫਿਰਤ ਸਗਲ ਜੁਗ ਕਬਹੁ ਕ ਕੋਊ ਪਾਵੈ ਆਤਮ ਪ੍ਰਗਾਸ ਕਉ ॥
jaa ko mun dhhyaan dhharai firath sagal jug kabahu k kooo paavai aatham pragaas ko ||
For His Sake, the silent sages meditated and focused their consciousness, wandering all the ages through; rarely, if ever, their souls were enlightened.




ਬੇਦ ਬਾਣੀ ਸਹਿਤ ਬਿਰੰਚਿ ਜਸੁ ਗਾਵੈ ਜਾ ਕੋ ਸਿਵ ਮੁਨਿ ਗਹਿ ਨ ਤਜਾਤ ਕਬਿਲਾਸ ਕੰਉ ॥
baedh baanee sehith biranch jas gaavai jaa ko siv mun gehi n thajaath kabilaas kano ||
In the Hymns of the Vedas, Brahma sang His Praises; for His Sake, Shiva the silent sage held his place on the Kailaash Mountain.



ਜਾ ਕੌ ਜੋਗੀ ਜਤੀ ਸਿਧ ਸਾਧਿਕ ਅਨੇਕ ਤਪ ਜਟਾ ਜੂਟ ਭੇਖ ਕੀਏ ਫਿਰਤ ਉਦਾਸ ਕਉ ॥
jaa ka jogee jathee sidhh saadhhik anaek thap jattaa joott bhaekh keeeae firath oudhaas ko ||
For His Sake, the Yogis, celibates, Siddhas and seekers, the countless sects of fanatics with matted hair wear religious robes, wandering as detached renunciates
.


ਸੁ ਤਿਨਿ ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਸੁਖ ਭਾਇ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਧਾਰੀ ਜੀਅ ਨਾਮ ਕੀ ਬਡਾਈ ਦਈ ਗੁਰ ਰਾਮਦਾਸ ਕਉ ॥੫॥
s thin sathigur sukh bhaae kirapaa dhhaaree jeea naam kee baddaaee dhee gur raamadhaas ko ||5||
That True Guru, by the Pleasure of His Will, showered His Mercy upon all beings, and blessed Guru Raam Daas with the Glorious Greatness of the Naam. ||5||


ਨਾਮੁ ਨਿਧਾਨੁ ਧਿਆਨ ਅੰਤਰਗਤਿ ਤੇਜ ਪੁੰਜ ਤਿਹੁ ਲੋਗ ਪ੍ਰਗਾਸੇ ॥
naam nidhhaan dhhiaan antharagath thaej punj thihu log pragaasae ||
He focuses His Meditation deep within; the Embodiment of Light, He illuminates the three worlds.



ਦੇਖਤ ਦਰਸੁ ਭਟਕਿ ਭ੍ਰਮੁ ਭਜਤ ਦੁਖ ਪਰਹਰਿ ਸੁਖ ਸਹਜ ਬਿਗਾਸੇ ॥
dhaekhath dharas bhattak bhram bhajath dhukh parehar sukh sehaj bigaasae ||
Gazing upon the Blessed Vision of His Darshan, doubt runs away, pain is eradicated, and celestial peace spontaneously wells up.



ਸੇਵਕ ਸਿਖ ਸਦਾ ਅਤਿ ਲੁਭਿਤ ਅਲਿ ਸਮੂਹ ਜਿਉ ਕੁਸਮ ਸੁਬਾਸੇ ॥
saevak sikh sadhaa ath lubhith al samooh jio kusam subaasae ||
The selfless servants and Sikhs are always totally captivated by it, like bumble bees lured by the fragrance of the flower.



ਬਿਦ੍ਯ੍ਯਮਾਨ ਗੁਰਿ ਆਪਿ ਥਪ੍ਯ੍ਯਉ ਥਿਰੁ ਸਾਚਉ ਤਖਤੁ ਗੁਰੂ ਰਾਮਦਾਸੈ ॥੬॥
bidhyamaan gur aap thhapyo thhir saacho thakhath guroo raamadhaasai ||6||
The Guru Himself established the Eternal Throne of Truth, in Guru Raam Daas. ||6||

English Translation (source:SikhiToTheMax)

Bihaagraa, Fifth Mehl, Chhant:
Listen to my prayer, O my Lord and Master.
I am filled with millions of sins, but still, I am Your slave.
O Destroyer of pain, Bestower of Mercy, Fascinating Lord, Destroyer of sorrow and strife,
I have come to Your Sanctuary; please preserve my honor. You are all-pervading, O Immaculate Lord.
He hears and beholds all; God is with us, the nearest of the near.
O Lord and Master, hear Nanak's prayer; please save the servants of Your household. ||1||
You are eternal and all-powerful; I am a mere beggar, Lord.
I am intoxicated with the love of Maya - save me, Lord!
Bound down by greed, emotional attachment and corruption, I have made so many mistakes.
The creator is both attached and detached from entanglements; one obtains the fruits of his own actions.
Show kindness to me, O Purifier of sinners; I am so tired of wandering through reincarnation.
Prays Nanak, I am the slave of the Lord; God is the Support of my soul, and my breath of life. ||2||
You are great and all-powerful; my understanding is so inadequate, O Lord.
You cherish even the ungrateful ones; Your Glance of Grace is perfect, Lord.
Your wisdom is unfathomable, O Infinite Creator. I am lowly, and I know nothing.
Forsaking the jewel, I have saved the shell; I am a lowly, ignorant beast.
I have kept that which forsakes me, and is very fickle, continually committing sins, again and again.
Nanak seeks Your Sanctuary, Almighty Lord and Master; please, preserve my honor. ||3||
I was separated from Him, and now, He has united me with Himself.
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.
Singing the Praises of the Lord of the Universe, the ever-sublime blissful Lord is revealed to me.
My bed is adorned with God; my God has made me His own.
Abandoning anxiety, I have become carefree, and I shall not suffer in pain any longer.
Nanak lives by beholding the Blessed Vision of His Darshan, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe, the ocean of excellence. ||4||5||8||
