Enchanting the hearts of the Sadh Sangat she invites us to connect deeply with Waheguru's Gurbani. Ik Ardaas Bhaat Keerat Kee * ham avagun bharae eaek gun naahee a(n)mrith shhaadd bikhai bikh khaaee || I am overflowing with sins and demerits; I have no merits or virtues at all. I abandoned the Ambrosial Nectar, and I drank poison instead. maayaa moh bharam pai bhoolae suth dhaaraa sio preeth lagaaee || I am attached to Maya, and deluded by doubt; I have fallen in love with my children and spouse. eik outham pa(n)thh suniou gur sa(n)gath thih mila(n)th jam thraas mittaaee || I have heard that the most exalted Path of all is the Sangat, the Guru's Congregation. Joining it, the fear of death is taken away. eik aradhaas bhaatt keerath kee gur raamadhaas raakhahu saranaaee ||4||58|| Keerat the poet offers this one prayer: O Guru Raam Daas, save me! Take me into Your Sanctuary! ||4||58||
