163. Infinite is the Form of one who created the Universe, and He alone knows its state. And seeing it, He is in Joy; yea, this Wisdom of the Lord is attained through the Guru. (Suhi, M. 4)

164. All that happens is in the Lord's Will. We would do a thing only if we could. (Suhi, M. 4)

165. The Juggler performs His many Feats, and exhibits Himself in many many Roles. But when He lays aside the mask, and ends His Play, then the One alone remains, yea, the One alone. How many forms become manifest and then disappeared? Pray, whee did they come from and whither did they go? Many are the waves that arise in the sea. The gold is beaten into a myriad patterns. The seed spreads out in a myriad branches. But when it fruitions, the fruit yields but the same seed. If a thousand pitchers break, they break into the same light. And lo, delusion and greed, and attachment and Maya and sin, all dissolve in the end into the One Lord, when one's Doubt is shattered. (Suhi, M. 5)

166. He in whose minds abides God loses his self. (Maru, M. 1)

167. Blessed is the township of the body in which abide the five great ones--Truth, Compassion, Contentment, Discrimination, Righteousness--and over them rules the One Detached, wrapped in Absolute Trance. (Maru, M. 1)

168. One knows not the Unknowable, but how is He to be known? It is through the Guru who shows thy God abiding ever with thee. (Basant, M. 1)

169. Such is God, my King, the Inner-Knower, as one sees one's countenance in the mirror. He abides in all hearts, but is contaminated not. He is free of all bondage, and yet bound to the world. (Kanra, Namdevji)

170. In the fortress of the body is God, but the obstinate one knows not His Flavour. But when the Lord, who's compassionate to the meek, Blesses one, one Tastes His taste through the Guru's Word. (Gauri, M. 4)

171. I've ground my body into the dye-stuff (of its essence) and, dyeing the mind with it, made the five elements my marriage-party and with my Lord the King. I circumambulate (His Fire), and so get wedded to Him. I've erected the altar in my lotus-heart and (before it) utter the wisdom of God and lo, I attain unto my God as the Groom. How fortunate I am ! (Asa, Kabirji)
