Shalok, Fifth Mehl:
The Bani of the Guru's Word is Ambrosial Nectar; its taste is sweet. The Name of the Lord is Ambrosial Nectar.
Meditate in remembrance on the Lord in your mind, body and heart; twenty-four hours a day, sing His Glorious Praises.
Listen to these Teachings, O Sikhs of the Guru. This is the true purpose of life.
This priceless human life will be made fruitful; embrace love for the Lord in your mind.
Celestial peace and absolute bliss come when one meditates on God - suffering is dispelled.
O Nanak, chanting the Naam, the Name of the Lord, peace wells up, and one obtains a place in the Court of the Lord. ||1||
