The being that does not meditate upon him,
May be deemed to have wasted the fruit of his life.(7)
Upon these fields swarming with shoddy fruits,
When he accords satiated vision from a distance,(8)
He feels contented just by looking at them,
And races towards them to pluck the fruits.(9)
But, he gets no fruits from that garden,
And returns all hungry, thirsty and tired.(10)
And, without the preceptor, deem all the play,
As if all the fields were strewn with the thorny bushes.(11)
First Guru - Guru Nanak Dev Jee

The Almighty is the Truth
The Almighty is Omnipresent
