To him that has understanding is given the nectar

To him that has understanding is given the nectar.
Without the Guru none can ease his burning drought, man passes thirsty away.
Many wandered searching, searching, obeying always sightless guides.
They that of their own selves see nothing, how can they give sight to others?
Who can look for fruit from these? Fools they are and without understanding.
A blind man takes a blind man's hand, one woman leads another.
One and the same are teachers and taught: the dealings of both are one.
This was their trust, they sank in the deep, and were plunged into the midst of hell.
Sukdeva says to Charan Das: the faith of these is refuse.
Wisdom and devotion are attained, when union with the sat guru is fulfilled.
