Raag Bilaaval

The Commentary

This composition opens the Bilaaval section with the full Mool Mantar, then Guru Nanak's own posture before the boundless One. The arc: the Mool Mantar plus the confession that no title could add to the One (P0); the rahaao asking only for understanding and truthful living (P1); everything flows from You, so cleverness is beside the point (P2); words catch barely a speck of Your greatness (P3); and the luminous close, that even empty-handed the Master's Name never leaves (P4).
