In the Nectar there is the Sound Principle
There is a sweet Melody and unending Music in the Nectar and this supports the entire universe. The Nectar is the Bread of life, the food of the soul.
The mind strays and wanders; on meeting the Master it is stilled; one then enters the tenth door; there ambrosia is the food, and the melody of the Shabd, resounds, which supports the entire universe. The unending music plays there; and one merges in the Truth. Oh Nanak, on meeting the Master; the wandering mind is stilled; and one dwells in the Eternal Abode.
Meeting the True Guru, the wandering mind is held steady; it comes to abide in its own home. […] The outgoing, wandering soul, upon meeting the True Guru, opens the Tenth Gate. There, Ambrosial Nectar is food and the celestial music resounds; the world is held spell-bound by the music of the Word. The many strains of the unstruck melody resound there, as one merges in Truth. Thus, says Nanak: by meeting the True Guru, the wandering soul becomes steady, and comes to dwell in the home of its own self.
Guru Amar Das –
Adi Granth, Asa M3, Chhant, p. 440-441
When a Saint meets a Saint, contentment reigns supreme. The unutterable Truth is dwelt upon if one merges in the Perfect Master. One drinks Nectar and is contented; one is honoured in the Court of the Lord. In all hearts rings the music of the Lord's flute; and one loves the Shabd day and night. Rare are they who know this; through the Guru this is made clear.
When one Holy person meets another Holy person, they abide in contentment, through the Love of the Guru. They contemplate the Unspoken Speech, merging in absorption in the True Guru. Drinking in the Ambrosial Nectar, they are contented; they go to the Court of the Lord in robes of honor.
In each and every heart the Music of the Lord’s Flute vibrates, night and day, with sublime love for the Shabd. Only those few who become Gurumukh understand this by instructing their minds. […]
