Shabad Bina Saara Jag Andha - Soami Ji Maharaj - 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: Without Shabd humanity has gone blind – who will cut them free of their bonds of attachment? Without Shabd all activity is futile; deprived of Shabd the soul is shackled with chains. Shabd has created the sun and the moon; without the touch of Shabd the soul remains tainted. Other than Shabd practice all counsel is bad counsel, for Shabd itself is the best preacher, itself the best sermon. If you practise Shabd, you will receive bliss; without Shabd all are condemned. So you should practise Shabd day and night, and contemplate nothing but Shabd. Obtain the secret of Shabd from the Master, then merge yourself into that Shabd. The light of Shabd shines within – look into the world of Shabd through the window of your heart. Shabd sustains all souls and yet remains detached. Know that Shabd is the essence of everything – adopt the path of Shabd and attain salvation. My friend, apply yourself to the practice of Shabd and defeat Kal with the might of Shabd. Reach the harbour of Shabd in your own heart and see your Beloved, whose real form is Shabd, nothing but Shabd. Shabd will repeal the decree of karma, Guru’s Shabd will unite you with the primal Shabd. Without Shabd all knowledge is deception, without Shabd all contemplation is fruitless. Do not abandon the path of Shabd, O thoughtless one – so Radha Soami explains to you. This shabad is published by Radha Soami Satsang Beas. You may visit our official website at: https://www.rssb.org
