My soul, you are not native to this place;
Cherish the true Lord in your innermost depths.
As streams spring from the same source,
Are separated, then meet in the ocean,
Thus do souls reunite in the Infinite.
Rare is the person who knows
That age after age worldly illusions
entice and poison the soul.
Those who contemplate the Master
Learn easily and realize God.
(Guru Granth Sahib p. 438)
