Excerpts From Siree Guru Granth Sahib God Is One. It Is True. He Is The Creator. He Has No Concern With Anything. He Has No Enemy. He Is Immortal. He Does Not Take Birth. He Came Into Existence On His Own. He Is Realized By Guru’S (Divine Teacher) Grace Reciting God’S Name. “ Recite”Page 9 Be Stable Like A Mountain Patience Like A Goldsmith. Be Humble Like An Anvil; Repeat The Name Of God Like The Repetition Of A Hammer. Intent Like Bellows And Repeat The Name Of God From Within As Fire Gives Heat.

Nanak Says Only With God’S Grace You Can Miss God And Enjoy The Fruit. ||38|| Hymn: Using Air As A Culture Life Has Been Created By The Reaction Of Water And Earth.
