Death
When the body mingles with dust, what
happens to the soul? All clever tricks are burnt away, and you shall
depart crying. O Nanak, those who forget the Naam—what will happen when
they go to the Court of the Lord?
Sahib Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji P.17
SIREE RAAG, FIRST MEHL: The empty body is dreadful, when the soul goes
out from within. The burning fire of life is extinguished, and the smoke
of the breath no longer emerges. The five relatives (the senses) weep
and wail painfully, and waste away through the love of duality. || 1 ||
You fool: chant the Name of the Lord, and preserve your virtue. Egotism
and possessiveness are very enticing; egotistical pride has plundered
everyone. || 1 || Pause || Those who have forgotten the Naam, the Name
of the Lord, are attached to affairs of duality. Attached to duality,
they putrefy and die; they are filled with the fire of desire within.
Those who are protected by the Guru are saved; all others are cheated
and plundered by deceitful worldly affairs.
Sahib Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji p.19
SIREE RAAG, FIRST MEHL: Listen, O my mind, my friend, my darling: now is
the time to meet the Lord. As long as there is youth and breath, give
this body to Him. Without virtue, it is useless; the body shall crumble
into a pile of dust. || 1 || O my mind, earn the profit, before you
return home. The Gurmukh, doog person, praises the Naam, and the fire of
egotism is extinguished
Sahib Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji P.22
Bring the twenty-seven elements of the body under your control, and
throughout the three stages of life, remember death. See the Infinite
Lord in the ten directions, and in all the variety of nature. Says
Nanak, in this way, the One Lord shall carry you across. ||
Sahib Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji P.24
