सुख दुख सिर ऊपर सहै, कबहुं न छाडै संग I रंग न लागै और का, व्यापै सतगुरू रंग II
"Existence is suffering. No matter how hard we try, we cannot escape suffering. Suffering is part of the fabric of life, an unchosen and unwelcome part, for sure, but something every human being eventually confronts. Kabir says, never let the sufferings weigh down upon you and disturb you. Also one must not get carried away by the moments of happiness, for everything in this world is but fleeting. Don't let the desires make you dance to their tune. Instead we must surrender to Guru, for the feelings of joy, peace and purity are effortlessly invoked in the aura of a living master. Surrendering to a Guru in no way compels us to renounce the world we live in. In fact, it brings forth remarkable changes within us by adding the virtues of oneness, awareness and wisdom. In the presence of a Guru, our life becomes like a river stream that goes through various twists and turns without offering any resistance, before it finally merges into the Ocean of Self."
