jo chiraagon mein uljhaa
woh roshni bhool gaya..

ਚੜ ਸੂਲੀ ਤੇ ਬਹਿਣਾ
ਦਰ - ਦਰ ਤੇ ਟੁਕੜੇ ਮੰਗਣੇ
ਮਾਈਏ ਭੈਣੇ ਕਹਿਣਾ ..

Aukhi ramaz fakeeri waali
char sooli te behna
dar-dar te tukde mangne
maaiye bhene kehna ..

Details:
It is difficult to acknowledge, understand and follow vast hidden treasures of knowledge in Guru's teachings. One has to keep aside and sacrifice own intellect, experience, skill, smartness and ego. It is not everybody's cup of tea to beg from door to door calling upon mothers and sisters for alms like a fakir does.

who created this world ..

I have again and again grown like grass.
I have experienced seven hundred and seventy moulds.
I died from minerality and become vegetable;
…And from vegetative-ness I died and become animal.
I died from animality and became man.

Next time I shall die,
Bring forth wings and feathers like angels.
After that soaring higher than angels-
What you cannot imagine,
I shall be that. - Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi

Neither is God above the highest heaven
nor is God in the Ka’ba - He!
neither was God found in bookish knowledge
nor is God in the mosque’s niche - He!
(even) on pilgrimage to the Ganges,
the source was not found
(despite) going measureless distances - He!
when the Guide was found by Bahu
over were all the torments - He!
