Guru Nanak Dev Sayings
- his (god) compassion is beyond all description.
the lord's gifts are so great he expects nothing in return.
- all creation is his (god) name;
there is no place that is not his name.
- countless are the names and the places where you (god) dwell,
countless worlds that have never been reached.
to say countless is to burden the mind.
- those in whose heart rama (god) abides
never die nor can be cheated.
- his (god) is the timeless form.
never born, self-creating.
he is attained by the guru's grace.
- the real power lies in his hands
-- who creates and keeps on watching.
nanak says, no one is high and no one is low before him.
- were you to live through four ages,
or even ten times more,
were you known on all nine continents,
and were to gain universal following,
were you to earn fame and praise from all of mankind,
if you have not his grace, nothing will save you.
- he makes the worthless worthy,
and showers the gifted with more gifts.
none but god can bestow such excellence
