A few inspired quotes, courtesy of The Sikhs- Their Religious Beliefs and Practices by W. Owen Cole and Piara Singh Sambhi.
Burn worldy love
Grinding it into ahses to make ink.
Let your intellect be the fine paper
On which you should write
With the pen of divine love,
As dictated by the Guru.
Write the praises of his Name
Write that He is limitless and great.
Oh teacher, if you were to learn writing this
The truth of it will stand by you
Wherever you are called upon to render account.
-Guru Nanak
Let him bear the name of Shiva or Kesava [Vishnu],
or of the Jina [Mahavira], or of the lotus-born Lord,
whatever name he bears
May he take from me, sick woman that I am, the disease of the world,
Whether he be he, or he, or he.
-Lalla, a fourteenth century Kashmiri Shaivite
The grandeur of the Sat Guru is infinite, infinite in his bounty,
He opened my eyes to the Infinite and showed me Infinity.
I was just tagging along in the wake of the world and the Veda,
Then the Sat Guru met me on the path and he put a lamp in my hand.
A lamp full of oil he gave me whose wock will never run dry;
All bartering is over,
I will go to the market no more.
- Kabir
