Welcome to the Wedding

• The wedding is supposed to represent your spiritual Journey.

• Everything in the physical world has been placed for you to understand the Sukhum World.

• Satguru, Guru, Sikh.

• Superstition and Greed perverts these practices and makes them a show rather than a lesson for life.

ਹਮ ਘਰਿ ਸਾਜਨ ਆਏ ॥ ਸਾਚੈ ਮੇਰਿ ਰਮਿਾਏ ॥ ਸਹਰਜ ਰਮਿਾਏ ਹਰਿ ਮਰਨ ਿਾਏ ਪੰ੍ਚ ਰਮਿੇ ਸੁਿੁ ਪ੍ਾਇਆ ॥ ਸਾਈ ਵਸਤੁ ਪ੍ਿਾਪ੍ਰਤ ਹੋਈ ਰਜਸੁ ਸੇਤੀ ਮਨੁ ਿਾਇਆ ॥ ਅਨਰਦਨੁ ਮੇਿੁ ਿਇਆ ਮਨੁ ਮਾਰਨਆ ਘਿ ਮੰਦਿ ਸੋਹਾਏ ॥ ਪੰ੍ਚ ਸਬਦ ਧੁਰਨ ਅਨਹਦ ਵਾਜੇ ਹਮ ਘਰਿ ਸਾਜਨ ਆਏ ॥੧॥ My friends have come into my home. The True Lord has united me with them. The Lord automatically united me with them when it pleased Him; uniting with the chosen ones, I have found peace. I have obtained that thing, which my mind desired. Meeting with them, night and day, my mind is pleased; my home and mansion are beautified. The unstruck sound current of the Panch Shabad, the Five Primal Sounds, vibrates and resounds; my friends have come into my home. ||1||

ਆਵਹੁ ਮੀਤ ਰਪ੍ਆਿੇ ॥ ਮੰਗਿ ਗਾਵਹ ੁਨਾਿੇ ॥ ਸਚੁ ਮੰਗਿੁ ਗਾਵਹ ੁਤਾ ਪ੍ਰਿ ਿਾਵਹੁ ਸੋਰਹਿੜਾ ਜੁਗ ਚਾਿੇ ॥ ਅਪ੍ਨੈ ਘਰਿ ਆਇਆ ਥਾਰਨ ਸੁਹਾਇਆ ਕਾਿਜ ਸਬਰਦ ਸਵਾਿੇ ॥ ਰਗਆਨ ਮਹਾ ਿਸੁ ਨੇਤਰੀ ਅੰਜਨੁ ਰਤਰਿਵਿ ਿੂਪ੍ੁ ਰਦਿਾਇਆ ॥ ਸਿੀ ਰਮਿਹੁ ਿਰਸ ਮੰਗਿੁ ਗਾਵਹ ੁਹਮ ਘਰਿ ਸਾਜਨੁ ਆਇਆ ॥੨॥ So come, my beloved friends, and sing the songs of joy, O sisters. Sing the

true songs of joy and God will be pleased. You shall be celebrated

throughout the four ages. My Husband Lord has come into my home, and

my place is adorned and decorated. Through the Shabad, my affairs have

been resolved. Applying the ointment, the supreme essence, of divine

wisdom to my eyes, I see the Lord's form throughout the three worlds. So

join with me, my sisters, and sing the songs of joy and delight; my friends

have come into my home. ||2||

ਮਨੁ ਤਨੁ ਅੰਰਮਰਰਤ ਰਿੰਨਾ ॥ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ੁਿਤੰਨਾ ॥ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਿਤਨੁ ਪ੍ਦਾਿਥੁ ਮੇਿ ੈਪ੍ਿਮ ਤਤੁ ਵੀਚਾਿੋ ॥ ਜੰਤ ਿੇਿ ਤੂ ਸਫਰਿਓ ਦਾਤਾ ਰਸਰਿ ਰਸਰਿ ਦੇਵਿਹਾਿੋ ॥ ਤੂ ਜਾਨੁ ਰਗਆਨੀ ਅੰਤਿਜਾਮੀ ਆਪ੍ੇ ਕਾਿਿੁ ਕੀਨਾ ॥ ਸੁਨਹੁ ਸਿੀ ਮਨੁ ਮੋਹਰਨ ਮੋਰਹਆ ਤਨੁ ਮਨੁ ਅੰਰਮਰਰਤ ਿੀਨਾ ॥੩॥ My mind and body are drenched with Ambrosial Nectar; deep within the nucleus of my self, is the jewel of the Lord's Love. This invaluable jewel is deep within me; I contemplate the supreme essence of reality. Living beings are mere beggars; You are the Giver of rewards; You are the Giver to each and every being. You are Wise and All-knowing, the Inner-knower; You Yourself created the creation. So listen, O my sisters - the Enticer has enticed my mind. My body and mind are drenched with Nectar. ||3||

ਆਤਮ ਿਾਮੁ ਸੰਸਾਿਾ ॥ ਸਾਚਾ ਿੇਿੁ ਤੁਮਹ੍ਾਿਾ ॥ ਸਚੁ ਿੇਿੁ ਤੁਮ੍ਹਾਿਾ ਅਗਮ ਅਪ੍ਾਿਾ ਤੁਧੁ ਰਬਨੁ ਕਉਿ ੁਬੁਝਾਏ ॥ ਰਸਧ ਸਾਰਧਕ ਰਸਆਿੇ ਕੇਤੇ ਤਝੁ ਰਬਨੁ ਕਵਿੁ ਕਹਾਏ ॥ ਕਾਿੁ ਰਬਕਾਿੁ ਿਏ ਦਵੇਾਨੇ ਮਨੁ ਿਾਰਿਆ ਗੁਰਿ ਠਾਏ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਅਵਗਿ ਸਬਰਦ ਜਿਾਏ ਗੁਿ ਸੰਗਰਮ ਪ੍ਰਿ ੁਪ੍ਾਏ ॥੪॥੧॥੨॥ O Supreme Soul of the World, Your play is true. Your play is true, O Inaccessible and Infinite Lord; without You, who can make me understand? There are millions of Siddhas and enlightened seekers, but without You, who can call himself one? Death and rebirth drive the mind insane; only the Guru can hold it in its place. O Nanak, one who burns away his demerits and faults with the Shabad, accumulates virtue, and finds God. ||4||1||2||

daughter of the alms-giver is just like your own; by accepting this payment for performing the wedding ceremony, you have cursed your own life. ||6||
