Raag Ramkalee – Ang 954

This Slok by Guru Nanak Dev Ji is found at Angg 953/4, SGGS Ji.

Guru Ji lists an astonishing number of persons from the Hindu Scriptures and ordinary persons of the world who had to cry because of their karmas.

Guru Ji starts with Indra, king of the devas. He was cursed to have a thousand marks of shame upon his body for lustfully defiling Ahalya, the chaste wife of Gautam Rishi.

All had to suffer pain, losses and indignities because of their earlier actions.

The law of karma carries on relentlessly. In the final two lines, Guru Ji says only if one truly believes in Naam, can he triumph over the lekhas of past karmas as the Lord can in His Mercy erase any lekhas. No other method or action to annul the severity of past karmas is of any use.

“Manne Naao soyee jinn jaaye; Auri karam na lekhe laaye.”

Listen to the Shabad many times and reflect upon Guru Ji’s Sachi Bani.
