Siree Raag, Third Mehl:

guramukh kripaa kare bhagat keejai bin gur bhagat na hoee |
By His Grace one becomes Gurmukh, worshipping the Lord with devotion. Without the Guru there is no devotional worship.
ਆਪੈ ਆਪੁ ਮਿਲਾਏ ਬੂਝੈ ਤਾ ਨਿਰਮਲੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਸੋਈ ॥

Those whom He unites with Himself, understand and become pure.

The Dear Lord is True, and True is the Word of His Bani. Through the Shabad, we merge with Him. ||1||

O Siblings of Destiny: those who lack devotion-why have they even bothered to come into the world?

So what about all these poor beings and creatures? What can anyone say?

Within your conscious mind, you may say anything, but without the Guru, selfishness is not removed.
