Satgur Ki Seva Safal Hai - Guru Amar Das Ji - RSSB Shabad

These shabads are hymns or spiritual poems written by saints and mystics from different spiritual traditions of the Indian subcontinent. The shabads convey a deep message of truth and are sung with heartfelt devotion. They express the intense longing of the soul for union with the Lord. These songs of devotion are prayers that inspire the true seeker to turn inwards to contact the ultimate Truth – the inner divine music that reverberates within every being. 

 English Translation:
Fruitful is the service of the Guru
if one does it with the whole mind.
One attains the fruit of one’s heart’s desire
and ego departs.
One breaks one’s bonds, is emancipated,
and is merged in the true One.
In this world, the Name is hard to attain.
Through the Guru, the Name is enshrined
in the mind.
Nanak: I am a sacrifice to the one
who serves the Guru.
