Japji Sahib • Chapter 1 • Shloka 8
ਥਾਪਿਆ ਨ ਜਾਇ ਕੀਤਾ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥ ਆਪੇ ਆਪਿ ਨਿਰੰਜਨੁ ਸੋਇ ॥ ਜਿਨਿ ਸੇਵਿਆ ਤਿਨਿ ਪਾਇਆ ਮਾਨੁ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਗਾਵੀਐ ਗੁਣੀ ਨਿਧਾਨੁ ॥ ਗਾਵੀਐ ਸੁਣੀਐ ਮਨਿ ਰਖੀਐ ਭਾਉ ॥ ਦੁਖੁ ਪਰਹਰਿ ਸੁਖੁ ਘਰਿ ਲੈ ਜਾਇ ॥ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਦੰ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਵੇਦੰ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਰਹਿਆ ਸਮਾਈ ॥ ਗੁਰੁ ਈਸਰੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਗੋਰਖੁ ਬਰਮਾ ਗੁਰੁ ਪਾਰਬਤੀ ਮਾਈ ॥ ਜੇ ਹਉ ਜਾਣਾ ਆਖਾ ਨਾਹੀ ਕਹਣਾ ਕਥਨੁ ਨ ਜਾਈ ॥ ਗੁਰਾ ਇਕ ਦੇਹਿ ਬੁਝਾਈ ॥ ਸਭਨਾ ਜੀਆ ਕਾ ਇਕੁ ਦਾਤਾ ਸੋ ਮੈ ਵਿਸਰਿ ਨ ਜਾਈ ॥
That God cannot be established in a tangible form by anyone, nor can He be created. He is beyond illusion and is self-illuminating. The human who has remembered the name of that God has received respect in His court. Shri Guru Nanak Dev Ji says that one should worship Nirankar, the storehouse of virtues. While singing His praises and listening to His praises, one should have reverence for Him in his heart. By doing this, sorrows are destroyed, and happiness resides in the house. The words that come out of the Guru's mouth are the knowledge of the Vedas, the same knowledge in the form of teachings is present everywhere. Guru is Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma and Mother Parvati, because Guru is the supreme power. Even if I know about that God with attributes, I cannot describe Him, because He cannot be described. O true Guru! Just explain to me that I should never forget the one who is the only giver of all living beings.
