The wandering through millions of births is over — this rare human body won, not lost; sanctified by the dust of the Saints, the soul finds the Name worth more than all treasures and all powers.
The Arc
Pauri 0: the wandering ended; the human body won, not lost. The Pause (Pauri 1): sins erased, sanctified by the dust of the Saints. Pauri 2: the Saints can save; they meet those with destiny. Pauri 3: the Guru's Mantra fills the mind with bliss, quenches thirst, steadies the mind. Pauri 4: the Name is all treasures and all powers — understanding from the Guru.
Key Vocabulary
