Please enjoy this live kirtan by Nirinjan Kaur. This was recorded at Ram Das Puri, New Mexico in at Summer Solstice Sadhana 2015.
ਕਹਾ ਭਯੋ ਜੋ ਦੋਊ ਲੋਚਨ ਮੂੰਦ ਕੈ ਬੈਠਿ ਰਹਿਓ ਬਕ ਧਿਆਨ ਲਗਾਇਓ ॥
What is the gain if one closes the eyes and sits hypocritically in a posture of meditation like a heron;
ਨ੍ਹਾਤ ਫਿਰਿਓ ਲੀਏ ਸਾਤ ਸਮੁਦ੍ਰਨਿ ਲੋਕ ਗਯੋ ਪਰਲੋਕ ਗਵਾਇਓ ॥
And goes abroad bathing in the seven seas? He has lost this world and after death is deprived entry in the next world.
ਬਾਸ ਕੀਓ ਬਿਖਿਆਨ ਸੋ ਬੈਠ ਕੈ ਐਸੇ ਹੀ ਐਸੇ ਸੁ ਬੈਸ ਬਿਤਾਇਓ ॥
He dwelt in the company of the Debauched persons and ruined the span of his life in such debaucheries.
ਸਾਚੁ ਕਹੋਂ ਸੁਨ ਲੇਹੁ ਸਭੈ ਜਿਨ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਕੀਓ ਤਿਨ ਹੀ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਪਾਇਓ ॥ 9॥29॥
I (Guru Gobind Singh Jee) pronounces verily and all should hear, "One, who truly loves God, has realized Him".(9)(29)
