Lust, anger, greed, attachment and egotism may banish. O lord creator, Nanak has humbly come to your presence seeking such benevolence.




ਅਸਟਪਦੀ
Asatpaḏī.
Eight stanzas hymn
ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਸੁਨਹਿ ਕਰਨ ਨਾਦ ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਪੇਖਹਿ ਬਿਸਮਾਦ
Jih parsāḏ sunėh karan nāḏ. Jih parsāḏ pekẖėh bismāḏ.
Through whose benevolence your ears hear pleasant sound. Through whose benevolence you watch wonders.


ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਬੋਲਹਿ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਰਸਨਾ ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਸੁਖਿ ਸਹਜੇ ਬਸਨਾ
Jih parsāḏ bolėh amriṯ rasnā. Jih parsāḏ sukẖ sėhje basnā.
Through whose benevolence your tongue utters sweet words. Through whose benevolence you live in calm and comfort.


ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਹਸਤ ਕਰ ਚਲਹਿ ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਸੰਪੂਰਨ ਫਲਹਿ
Jih parsāḏ hasaṯ kar cẖalėh. Jih parsāḏ sampūran falėh.
Through whose benevolence your hands perform. Through whose benevolence you succeed in all you do.


ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਪਰਮ ਗਤਿ ਪਾਵਹਿ ਜਿਹ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਸੁਖਿ ਸਹਜਿ ਸਮਾਵਹਿ
Jih parsāḏ param gaṯ pāvahi. Jih parsāḏ sukẖ sahj samāvėh.
Through whose benevolence you receive high status. Through whose benevolence you are enamored in carefree comfort.


ਐਸਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਤਿਆਗਿ ਅਵਰ ਕਤ ਲਾਗਹੁ ਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਨਾਨਕ ਮਨਿ ਜਾਗਹੁ ੬॥
Aisā parabẖ ṯi▫āg avar kaṯ lāgahu. Gur parsāḏ Nānak man jāgahu. ||6||
Relinquishing such creator, what are you focusing on. Nanak, the mind wakes up with creator’s benevolence.

ESSENCE: In the salok, Guru ji state the five mental attributes that affect living. These being lust, anger, greed, attachment and egotism. Guru ji pray to be blessed so these are banished.

Guru Arjan Dev ji in Astpadi 6, 6th stanza cite the worldly living amusements and pleasures that one experiences. Be these the wonderful sounds, the wonderful speech, the comforts, the manual labor and the fruits of such labor giving one honor and pleasant living.


Guru ji state that one should not forget such benevolence of the creator. It is a wish of same creator to so awaken the mind.
Please note all errors are mine and I stand corrected.

Sat Sri Akal.
