unfathomable ocean of the world of woe and pain. (He can acquire the power of keepinghis mind in control under all circumstances, success does not inflate him and failurenever daunts him. Filled with Divine realization, he lives in peace and good will, withthe whole creation).Sayeth Nanak, His devotees who meditate on His name and drink in deep thenectar of the Divine life within, are filled with ecstasy and their faces beam with Divinejoy. No pain or sin can touch them. They rise above all pain and sin.In the next four Pauris (12, 13, 14, and 15) Guru Nanak gives the spiritual stageof those persons, who after listening to Guru Updesha (the teachings of a God-consciousperson) weigh it in their minds; and make it the ideal of their lives.The spiritual stage (the stage of self-realization) of one who after weighing theteachings of the Satguru, fixes them in his mind and makes them the goal of his life,cannot be expressed in words. Anyone who attempts to express it falls so short of it, thathe feels ashamed of his vain attempt. The true stage of such a person no writer can puton paper. Howsoever wise a writer may be, whatsoever amount of paper and ink he maypossess, the spiritual stage of such a person cannot be expressed in words. The glory ofthe Divine Word (gurmantar – WAHEGURU), which is immaculate and free from alldross of attachment, is so great that only he who meditates on it, with full faith and love,and makes it dwell in his mind, can realize it.
