1If you turn your thoughts to the Lord, the Lord will take care of you like a relative. ||29||
2BHABHA: When doubt is pierced, union is achieved.
3I have shattered my fear, and now I have come to have faith.
4I thought that He was outside of me, but now I know that He is within me.
5When I came to understand this mystery, then I recognized the Lord. ||30||
6MAMMA: Clinging to the source, the mind is satisfied.
7One who knows this mystery understands his own mind.
8Let no one delay in uniting his mind.
9Those who obtain the True Lord are immersed in delight. ||31||
10MAMMA: The mortal's business is with his own mind; one who disciplines his mind attains perfection.
11Only the mind can deal with the mind; says Kabeer, I have not met anything like the mind. ||32||
12This mind is Shakti; this mind is Shiva.
13This mind is the life of the five elements.
14When this mind is channeled, and guided to enlightenment,
15it can describe the secrets of the three worlds. ||33||
16YAYYA: If you know anything, then destroy your evil-mindedness, and subjugate the body-village.
17When you are engaged in the battle, don't run away; then, you shall be known as a spiritual hero. ||34||
18RARRA: I have found tastes to be tasteless.
19Becoming tasteless, I have realized that taste.
20Abandoning these tastes, I have found that taste.
21Drinking in that taste, this taste is no longer pleasing. ||35||
22LALLA: Embrace such love for the Lord in your mind,
23that you shall not have to go to any other; you shall attain the supreme truth.
24And if you embrace love and affection for Him there,
25then you shall obtain the Lord; obtaining Him, you shall be absorbed in His Feet. ||36||
26WAWA: Time and time again, dwell upon the Lord.
27Dwelling upon the Lord, defeat shall not come to you.
28I am a sacrifice, a sacrifice to those, who sing the praises of the Saints, the sons of the Lord.
29Meeting the Lord, total Truth is obtained. ||37||
30WAWA: Know Him. By knowing Him, this mortal becomes Him.
31When this soul and that Lord are blended, then, having been blended, they cannot be known separately. ||38||
32SASSA: Discipline your mind with sublime perfection.
33Refrain from that talk which attracts the heart.
34The heart is attracted, when love wells up.
35The King of the three worlds is perfectly pervading and permeating there. ||39||
36KHAKHA: Anyone who seeks Him, and by seeking Him, finds Him, shall not be born again.
37When someone seeks Him, and comes to understand and contemplate Him,
38then he crosses over the terrifying world-ocean in an instant. ||40||
39SASSA: The bed of the soul-bride is adorned by her Husband Lord;
40her skepticism is dispelled.
41Renouncing the shallow pleasures of the world, she obtains the supreme delight.
42Then, she is the soul-bride; He is called her Husband Lord. ||41||
43HAHA: He exists, but He is not known to exist.
44When He is known to exist, then the mind is pleased and appeased.
45Of course the Lord exists, if one could only understand Him.
46Then, He alone exists, and not this mortal being. ||42||
47Everyone goes around saying, ""I'll take this, and I'll take that.""
48Because of that, they suffer in terrible pain.
49When someone comes to love the Lord of Lakhshmi,
50his sorrow departs, and he obtains total peace. ||43||
51KHAKHA: Many have wasted their lives, and then perished.
52Wasting away, they do not remember the Lord, even now.
53But if someone, even now, comes to know the transitory nature of the world and restrain his mind,
54he shall find his permanent home, from which he was separated. ||44||
