When the Lord causes us to meet the Guru, then we come to see them.

When it pleases Him, they come to dwell in our minds.

Shalok, First Mehla:

ਪਹਿਲਾ ਸੁਚਾ ਆਪਿ ਹੋਇ ਸੁਚੈ ਬੈਠਾ ਆਇ ॥

pahilaa suchaa aap hoi suchai baiThaa aai ||

First, purifying himself, the Brahmin comes and sits in his purified enclosure.

ਸੁਚੇ ਅਗੈ ਰਖਿਓਨੁ ਕੋਇ ਨ ਭਿਟਿਓ ਜਾਇ ॥

suche agai rakhion koi na bhiTio jai ||

The pure foods, which no one else has touched, are placed before him.

ਸੁਚਾ ਹੋਇ ਕੈ ਜੇਵਿਆ ਲਗਾ ਪੜਣਿ ਸਲੋਕੁ ॥

suchaa hoi kai jeviaa lagaa paRan salok ||

Being purified, he takes his food, and begins to read his sacred verses.

ਕੁਹਥੀ ਜਾਈ ਸਟਿਆ ਕਿਸੁ ਏਹੁ ਲਗਾ ਦੋਖੁ ॥

kuhathee jaiee saTiaa kis eh lagaa dhokh ||

But it is then thrown into a filthy place - whose fault is this?

ਅੰਨੁ ਦੇਵਤਾ ਪਾਣੀ ਦੇਵਤਾ ਬੈਸੰਤਰੁ ਦੇਵਤਾ ਲੂਣੁ ਪੰਜਵਾ ਪਾਇਆ ਘਿਰਤੁ ॥

a(n)n dhevataa paanee dhevataa baisa(n)tar dhevataa loon pa(n)javaa paiaa ghirat ||

The corn is sacred, the water is sacred; the fire and salt are sacred as well; when the fifth thing, the ghee, is added,

ਤਾ ਹੋਆ ਪਾਕੁ ਪਵਿਤੁ ॥

taa hoaa paak pavit ||

then the food becomes pure and sanctified.

ਪਾਪੀ ਸਿਉ ਤਨੁ ਗਡਿਆ ਥੁਕਾ ਪਈਆ ਤਿਤੁ ॥

paapee siau tan gaddiaa thukaa pieeaa tit ||

Coming into contact with the sinful human body, the food becomes so impure that is is spat upon.

ਜਿਤੁ ਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਊਚਰਹਿ ਬਿਨੁ ਨਾਵੈ ਰਸ ਖਾਹਿ ॥

jit mukh naam na uoochareh bin naavai ras khaeh ||

That mouth which does not chant the Naam, and without the Name eats tasty foods

ਨਾਨਕ ਏਵੈ ਜਾਣੀਐ ਤਿਤੁ ਮੁਖਿ ਥੁਕਾ ਪਾਹਿ ॥੧॥

- O Nanak, know this: such a mouth is to be spat upon. ||1||
