Without Nam Life is Pointless | Sabad of the Week

The Sabad commences with a vivid image—the touch of the Guru's hand on the devotee's forehead, a profound moment when the jewel-like Nam of the All-Pervasive comes to reside in the heart. This transformative act, facilitated by the Guru's gift of Nam, is described as a remedy for the deepest pains and debts accrued over many lifetimes. When Guru’s hand was placed on my forehead, All-Pervasive’s jewel-like Nam ¹ came to reside in my heart. Through Guru’s gift of Nam, many lifetimes of evilest pain and debt were removed. 1. My mind recites Charmer-Divine’s Nam, the source of all wealth. Perfect Guru instilled All-Pervasive’s Nam—without Nam, life is pointless. Reflect. Without Guru, the self-centered are foolish, Every day, remain trapped in illusion. Never serving at the feet of Goodness, Entire lives become worthless. 2. Those serving at the feet-base of Goodness-Guru become Master’s own, and lives become fruitful. O Master of the Universe, All-Pervasive, grace me to be the votary of the votary of Your votaries. 3. We are blind, wisdomless, unwise… How can we walk the Path? O Guru, grant us the blind ones, Your hem so commoner Nanak may walk in harmony. 4. 1.
