Prayer, its Nature & Technique - Kirpal Singh

PRAYERO Lord! do hear Nanak’s prayer: save me, for Iam Thy disciple.Thou art ever All-Powerful, while we are poorbeggars entangled in worldly attractions.O, do take us out of the mire and free us fromthe bondage of mind and matter,For we are every moment paying the penaltyfor our faults:O my Creator, Thou art unattached and freefrom all limitations.Tired as I am from wanderings into manyincarnations,O have mercy upon me,Nanak prayeth: I am the slave of Hari:The Lord is the support of my life breath.Thou art All-Powerful, while I have inferiorintelligence, my Lord;Thou, however, providest even for theungrateful,Perfect as Thou art in Thy Merciful Vision:O Creator, Thou art Beyond all understandingand Limitless, while I am lowly and knownaught:With my back upon the pearls, I collect shells,Brute, low and ignorant as I am,The hard earned maya (wealth), collectedthrough means fair and foul, is transitoryand disappears in the twinkling of an eye.Nanak seeks the shelter of the Omnipotent One,Do save me from ultimate disgrace. 24140
