Verses from Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji
ਸਭਨਾ ਜੀਆ ਕਾ ਇਕੁ ਦਾਤਾ ਸੋ ਮੈ ਵਿਸਰਿ ਨ ਜਾਈ ॥੫॥ There is only the One, the Giver of all souls. May I never forget Him.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji
Japji Sahib
ਸੁਕ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਕੀਤਾ ਰਹਸੀ ਮੇਰੇ ਜੀਅੜੇ ਬਹੁੜਿ ਨ ਆਵੈ ਵਾਰੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Only the good deeds which you have done shall remain with you, O my soul. This opportunity shall not come again.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji
Raag Gauri Cheti
ਸੁਖੁ ਦੁਖੁ ਜਿਹ ਪਰਸੈ ਨਹੀ ਲੋਭੁ ਮੋਹੁ ਅਭਿਮਾਨੁ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਸੁਨੁ ਰੇ ਮਨਾ ਸੋ ਮੂਰਤਿ ਭਗਵਾਨ ॥੧੩॥ One who is not touched by pleasure or pain, greed, emotional attachment, and egotistical pride, says Nanak, listen, mind: he is the very image of God.
