[GURSIKH]

first of all i m not hindu as the name of the subsection ,

but greetings to all my brothers and sister s on diwali

may you light your lamp as guru nanak says

ਰਾਮਕਲੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ॥
रामकली महला १ ॥
Raamkalee, First Mehl:

ਸੁਰਤੀ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਰਲਾਈਐ ਏਤੁ ॥
सुरती सुरति रलाईऐ एतु ॥
Focus your consciousness in deep absorption on the Lord.

ਤਨੁ ਕਰਿ ਤੁਲਹਾ ਲੰਘਹਿ ਜੇਤੁ ॥
तनु करि तुलहा लंघहि जेतु ॥
Make your body a raft, to cross over.

ਅੰਤਰਿ ਭਾਹਿ ਤਿਸੈ ਤੂ ਰਖੁ ॥
अंतरि भाहि तिसै तू रखु ॥
Deep within is the fire of desire; keep it in check.

ਅਹਿਨਿਸਿ ਦੀਵਾ ਬਲੈ ਅਥਕੁ ॥੧॥
अहिनिसि दीवा बलै अथकु ॥१॥
Day and night, that lamp shall burn unceasingly. ||1||

ਐਸਾ ਦੀਵਾ ਨੀਰਿ ਤਰਾਇ ॥
ऐसा दीवा नीरि तराइ ॥
Float such a lamp upon the water;

ਜਿਤੁ ਦੀਵੈ ਸਭ ਸੋਝੀ ਪਾਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
जितु दीवै सभ सोझी पाइ ॥१॥ रहाउ ॥
this lamp will bring total understanding. ||1||Pause||

ਹਛੀ ਮਿਟੀ ਸੋਝੀ ਹੋਇ ॥
हछी मिटी सोझी होइ ॥
This understanding is good clay;

ਤਾ ਕਾ ਕੀਆ ਮਾਨੈ ਸੋਇ ॥
ता का कीआ मानै सोइ ॥
a lamp made of such clay is acceptable to the Lord.

ਕਰਣੀ ਤੇ ਕਰਿ ਚਕਹੁ ਢਾਲਿ ॥
करणी ते करि चकहु ढालि ॥
So shape this lamp on the wheel of good actions.

ਐਥੈ ਓਥੈ ਨਿਬਹੀ ਨਾਲਿ ॥੨॥
ऐथै ओथै निबही नालि ॥२॥
In this world and in the next, this lamp shall be with you. ||2||

ਆਪੇ ਨਦਰਿ ਕਰੇ ਜਾ ਸੋਇ ॥
आपे नदरि करे जा सोइ ॥
When He Himself grants His Grace,

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਵਿਰਲਾ ਬੂਝੈ ਕੋਇ ॥
गुरमुखि विरला बूझै कोइ ॥
then, as Gurmukh, one may understand Him.

ਤਿਤੁ ਘਟਿ ਦੀਵਾ ਨਿਹਚਲੁ ਹੋਇ ॥
तितु घटि दीवा निहचलु होइ ॥
Within the heart, this lamp is permanently lit.

ਪਾਣੀ ਮਰੈ ਨ ਬੁਝਾਇਆ ਜਾਇ ॥
पाणी मरै न बुझाइआ जाइ ॥
It is not extinguished by water or wind.

ਐਸਾ ਦੀਵਾ ਨੀਰਿ ਤਰਾਇ ॥੩॥
ऐसा दीवा नीरि तराइ ॥३॥
Such a lamp will carry you across the water. ||3||

ਡੋਲੈ ਵਾਉ ਨ ਵਡਾ ਹੋਇ ॥
डोलै वाउ न वडा होइ ॥
Wind does not shake it, or put it out.

ਜਾਪੈ ਜਿਉ ਸਿੰਘਾਸਣਿ ਲੋਇ ॥
जापै जिउ सिंघासणि लोइ ॥
Its light reveals the Divine Throne.

ਖਤ੍ਰੀ ਬ੍ਰਾਹਮਣੁ ਸੂਦੁ ਕਿ ਵੈਸੁ ॥
खत्री ब्राहमणु सूदु कि वैसु ॥
The Kh'shaatriyas, Brahmins, Soodras and Vaishyas

ਨਿਰਤਿ ਨ ਪਾਈਆ ਗਣੀ ਸਹੰਸ ॥
निरति न पाईआ गणी सहंस ॥
cannot find its value, even by thousands of calculations.

ਐਸਾ ਦੀਵਾ ਬਾਲੇ ਕੋਇ ॥
ऐसा दीवा बाले कोइ ॥
If any of them lights such a lamp,

ਨਾਨਕ ਸੋ ਪਾਰੰਗਤਿ ਹੋਇ ॥੪॥੭॥
नानक सो पारंगति होइ ॥४॥७॥
O Nanak, he is emancipated. ||4||7||
