4 to 7 of 38 Steps to Lord TRUTH -SGGS pg 12


..back to Step 1 to 4
Step 5: SERVE TRUE IDEAs

  • Lord TRUTH Himself is Immaculate and Pure & needs no washing/bathing. Such ritualistic Services are FALSE

TRUE Service to the Lord is Service to SatGur ( TRUE IDEAs )

Those who Serve TRUE IDEAs by..

..Singing

* Sayth Nanak! Let us all sing Odes to the glory of the Lord ‘TRUTH’, who is the Treasure of Excellence.

..Listening

* Come On! Let us all! Every one of us! Sing and listen to Odes to Master ‘TRUTH’.

..& Grasping the Quintessence

* Let us grasp & retain the Theme of TRUE IDEAs sung,( dedicated to no one but Lord TRUTH), deep in our hearts through: -

...........Deep thinking,

...........Analysis,

...........Comprehension,

...........Infinite love &

...........Hard Work.

..stay in harmony with Thy commandments, earn honors.

  • This way let us all rid ourselves of the pain, & miseries and carry everlasting peace to our homes.
  • Within TRUE IDEAs reside:-

..........yogic Sound-current glorified as ‘Naad’ by yogis.

..........wisdom of ‘Vedas’

..........Master ‘TRUTH ‘ himself.

..........GOD

..........Master of Yoga Gorakh.

..........Vishnu and Brahma;

..........Paarvati and Lakhshmi

  • It is mind-boggling. Even if I had known all those & all that reside within TRUE IDEAs, I would not have been able to put across and describe in words.
  • To begin with Guru, ( TRUE IDEAs to TRUTH ) has given me just one understanding that There is only the One Master Giver of all souls i.e. TRUTH, May I never forget TRUTH!

Step 6: KNOW Your Own Self

  • My pilgrimageand holy bath is my being pleasing to Him. Without earning THY approval , what good are ritualistic bathing at places of stated holy Pligrimages.
  • I gaze upon all the created beings: without doing good deeds, one receives nothing.
  • All that is required is one thing -Listening to SatGur, ( TRUE IDEAs to TRUTH ).If only one listens this, he becomes a Sikh.


Punjabi has a classical attribute of being brief, straight to the point & thus lends itself conveniently to complex poetic, psychological, sentimental & philosophical expressions. Same word can be repeatedly used as verb/noun/adjective etc.

Nanak's writings are 'Unique Master Pieces in this regard .

  • SatGur has given me one understanding that there is only the One Master Giver of all souls i.e. Lord TRUTH. May I never forget LORD TRUTH.

Step 7: TOIL for No One's, but Thy Approval

  • Even if one...

.............could live throughout the four ages, or even ten times more,

.............was known throughout the nine continents and followed by all,

.............had a good name and reputation, with praise and fame throughout the world,

  • Still if Lord does not bless him, then who cares? What is the use? In such a case...

............one would be considered a lowly worm Among worms,

............even contemptible sinners would hold him in contempt.

  • THOU alone bless the unworthy with virtue, and bestow virtues on the virtuous.
  • No one else can even be imagined who could bestow any virtue upon unworthy.
