The Nectar is behind the Covering of the Mind
The nectar lies behind the covering of the mind. When the mind becomes still, the Nectar manifests itself. On attaining it one becomes immortal.
I long for the Name of the Lord, I can live only if I get it. There is Nectar in the mind, by the Guru’s Grace the Lord gives it.
If I receive my Love, the Naam, then I live. In the temple of the mind, is the Ambrosial Nectar of the Lord; through the Guru’s Teachings, we drink it in.
Guru Ram Das –
Adi Granth, Gauri M4, p. 175
Oh Nanak, the Nectar is within the mind, but one attains it by the Guru's Grace alone. And they alone drink it with abandon, in whose lot it is written by the primeval God.
Oh Nanak! The Ambrosial Nectar is obtained within the mind, by Guru’s Grace. They alone drink it with love, who have such preordained destiny. (Guru Angad Dev)
Guru Ram Das –
Adi Granth, Var of Sarang M4, p. 1238
When the mind is rid of its perversions and is purified, it obtains the essence of the Nectar.
By the Guru's Grace the mind became pure; and now it sings the praises of the essence of the Nectar.
Through the Guru’s Teachings, the mind becomes immaculate, speaking the Ambrosial Essence.
Guru Amar Das –
Adi Granth, Prabhati M3, p. 1334
