Those who meditate single-mindedly on the Name of God, and contemplate the Teachings of the Guru. Their faces are forever radiant in the Kingdom of God. (Guru Granth Sahib, 28)

The Destroyer of sorrow is Your Name, Lord; the Destroyer of sorrow is Your Name. Twenty-four hours a day, dwell upon the wisdom of the Perfect True Guru.

Remembering God, the pain of death is dispelled. Remembering God, death is eliminated. Remembering God, one's enemies are repelled. Remembering God, no obstacles are met. Remembering God, one remains awake and aware, night and day. Remembering God, one is not touched by fear. Remembering God, one does not suffer sorrow. The meditative remembrance of God is in the Company of the Holy. Nanak says, All treasures are in the Love of God. (Guru Granth Sahib, 262)

He has enshrined the Name of the Lord within my breath of life, and all my doubts and sorrows have departed. (Guru Granth Sahib, 442)

Meditation on God is the medicine to cure millions of illnesses. My Tantra and Mantra is to meditate, to vibrate upon God. Meditating on God, illnesses and pains are dispelled. The fruits of the mind's desires are fulfilled. (Guru Granth Sahib, 886)

O mortal, focus your thoughts on the Lord. Moment by moment, your life is running out; night and day, your body is passing away in vain. You have wasted your youth in corrupt pleasures, and your childhood in ignorance. You have grown old, and even now you do not understand the evil-mindedness in which you are entangled. Why have you forgotten God, who blessed you with this human life? Remembering Him in meditation, one attains salvation. And yet, you do not sing His Praises, even for an instant. Why are you intoxicated with Maya? It will not go along with you. Says Nanak, think of Him, remember Him in your mind, who will be your help and support in the end. (Guru Granth Sahib, 902)

Intuitive understanding, wisdom and cleverness, glory and beauty, pleasure, wealth and honor, all comforts, bliss, happiness and salvation, O Nanak, come by chanting the Naam, Name of God. (Guru Granth Sahib, 1323)

Chant the Name of the Lord. Conflict, suffering, greed and emotional attachment shall be dispelled, and the fever of egotism shall be relieved. (Guru Granth Sahib, 1341)

O my friend, remembering Him in meditation, salvation is attained; vibrate and meditate on Him. Says Nanak, listen carefully; your life is decreasing constantly! (Guru Granth Sahib, 1427)
