Sadho man ka maan tyago – Raag Gauree – Ang 219

 SGGS Angg 219.

Raag Gauree (Gauri) M.9.

Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji advises all Sikhs. Calling them sadhus, Guru Ji says firstly clear your mind of all pride; and as for
lust, anger and the company of evil people, run away from them day and night.

“Sadho man ka maan tyago; kaam krodh sangat durjan ki ta te ahnis bhaago” (rahao).

He who treats pain and pleasure alike and regards honor and dishonor equally; and who remains detached from joy and sorrow recognizes the true essence of the world.

“Sukh dukh dono sam kar jaane aur maan apmaana; harakh sogh te rahe ateeta tin jag tatt pechaana”

Renounce both praise and slander seek instead the State of Perfect Freedom; Nanak says this is such a difficult Play; a rare gurmukh realises this.

“Ustat ninda douu tyagey khojay padh Nirbaana; jan Nanak eh khel kathan hai kinhu gurmukh jaana”
