 Love  for God

If You are the mountain, then I am the peacock. If You are the moon, then I am the partridge in love with it.

O Lord, if You will not break with me, then I will not break with You. For, if I were to break with You, with whom would I then join?

If You are the lamp, then I am the wick. If You are the sacred place of pilgrimage, then I am the pilgrim.

I am joined in true love with You, Lord. I am joined with You, and I have broken with all others. Wherever I go, I serve You there.

There is no Lord other than You, O Divine Master. Meditating upon You, the noose of death is cut away.

To attain devotional worship, Ravi Daas sings to You, Lord (Guru Granth Sahib Ji, Ang 658).

"When you don't know what you believe, everything becomes an argument. Everything is debatable. But when you stand for something, decisions are obvious."
