Enshrined therein is Most Wondrous Commodity of Divine-Source. Life breath serves as lock and key to guard Precious Commodity. Lord takes no time at all in this wonderful Creation. 1. O', mind! Remain thou awake in full awareness, on guard. In slumber of ignorance wasted is precious human life. Sneaking evil thieves thereby loot away from your closet all your godliness and virtues. 1. Pause. The five sense organs posted as guards are totally unreliable. Keep fully aware and awake spiritually in Naam-Simran. Thus shall thee experience inner Enlightenment. 2. One lost in pleasurable pursuits of nine openings of worldliness, is unable to attain wondrous commodity at Dasam Duar.

It is therefore essential for those with Gurmat awareness and serious contemplators of Naam to focus their mind on Eternal Lord Supreme. Not heeding to distracting evil influence of nine sensory organs, one must remain engrossed in breath-by-breath Simran and thus find the key to Dasam Duar and gain access to Divine Play beyond. Envisioned then is the Benevolent Timeless Being. However even so, the devotee must maintain Churning of Naam-reciting with every breath, flowing between navel and Dasam Duar. Every breath whether ascending or descending between navel and Dasam Duar should be laced with Gur-mantar of 107
