सबद हजारे पातशाही १०

The Lord is One and He can be attained through the grace of the true Guru.

RAMKALI OF THE TENTH KING

O mind! the asceticism be practised in this way :

Consider your house as the forest and remain unattached within yourself…..Pause.

Consider continence as the matted hair, Yoga as the ablution and daily observances as your nails,

Consider the knowledge as the preceptor giving lessons to you and apply the Name of the Lord as ashes.1.

Eat less and sleep less, cherish mercy and forgiveness

Practise gentleness and contentment and remain free from three modes.2.

Keep your mind unattached from lust, anger, greed, insistence and infatuation,

Then you will visualize the supreme essence and realise the supreme Purusha.3.1.

RAMKALI OF THE TENTH KING

O Mind! the Yoga be practised in this way :

Consider the Truth as the horn, sincerity the necklace and meditation as ashes to be applied to your body…...Pause.

Make self-control your lyre and the prop of the Name as your alms,

Then the supreme essence will be played like the main string creating savoury divine music.1.

The wave of colourful tune will arise, manifesting the song of knowledge,

The gods, demons and sages would be amazed enjoying their ride in heavenly chariots.2.

While instructing the self in the garb of self-restraint and reciting God’s Name inwardly,

The body will always remain like gold and become immortal.3.2.

RAMKALI OF THE TENTH KING

O Man! fall at the feet of the supreme Purusha,

Why are you sleeping in worldly attachment, awake sometimes and be vigilant ?.....Pause.

O Animal! why do you preach to others, when you are quite ignorant

Why are you gathering the sins ? Forsake sometimes the poisonous enjoyment.1.

Consider these actions as illusions and devote yourself to righteous actions,

Absorb yourself in the remembrance of the name of the Lord and abandon and run away from sins.2.

So that the sorrows and sins do not afflict you and you may escape the trap of death

If you want to enjoy all comforts, then absorb yourself in the love of the Lord.3.3.

RAGA SORATH OF THE TENTH KING

O Lord! You alone can protect my honour! O blue-throated Lord of men! O the Lord of forests wearing blue vests! Pause.

O Supreme Purusha! Supreme Ishwara! Master of all! Holiest Divinity! living on air

O the Lord of Lakshmi! the greatest Light! ,

The Destroyer of the demons Madhu and Mus! and the bestower of salvation!1.

O the Lord without evil, without decay, without sleep, without poison and the Saviour from hell!

O the ocean of Mercy! the seer of all times! and the Destroyer of evil actions!....2.

O the wielder of bow! the Patient! the Prop of earth! the Lord without evil! and wielder of the sword!

I am unwise, I take refuge at Thy feet, catch hold of my hand and save me.3.

RAGA KALYAN OF THE TENTH KING

Do not accept anyone else except God as the Creator of the universe

He, the Unborn, Unconquerable and Immortal, was in the beginning, consider Him as Supreme Ishvara……Pause.

What then, if on coming into the world, one killed about ten demons

And displayed several phenomena to all and caused others to call Him Brahm (God).1.

How can He be called God, the Destroyer, the Creator, the Almighty and Eternal,

Who could not save himself from the wound-causing sword of mighty Death.2.

O fool! listen, how can he cause you to cause the dreadful ocean of Sansara (world), when he himself is drowned in great ocean?

You can escape the trap of death only when you catch hold of the prop of the world and take refuge in Him.3.

KHYAL OF THE TENTH KING

Convey to the dear friend the condition of the disciples,

Without Thee, the taking over of quilt is like disease and living in the house is like living with serpents

The flask is like the spike, the cup is like a dagger and (the separation) is like enduring the chopper of the butchers,
