SGGS Angg 920

Raag Ramkali – Pauri no.23 Anand Sahib.

Anand Sahib by Guru Amardas Ji (Ang 917 – 922), traces how one can receive Anand – inner bliss, with Gurbani.

In this Pauri, Guru Ji emphasises that your path to bliss will only be cleared, if you stick to the Bani of the Satguru. Pauri 24 tells us singing of other mantras and chants (kachi bani), will lead you astray.

Come O beloved Sikhs of the True Guru, and sing the Bani of Eternal Truths; Sing the Guru’s Bani, the Supreme Bani among all utterances.

“Aavho Sikh Satgur ke pyario gavho Sachi Bani; Bani ta gaavho Guru keri Baania sirr Bani.”

Those who are blessed by the Lord’s Glance of Grace, this Bani seeps into and dwells in their hearts; drink in this Ambrosial Nectar (Bani) and live in the Lord’s Love forever, by reciting the Name of the Sustainer of the world.

“Jinn ko nadar karam hovay hirday tinna samanee; pivho Amrit sada raho Har rang japiho Sarangpanee.”

Nanak says, sing this True Bani always.

“Kahe Nanak sada gaavho eh Sachi Bani.”
