Deceptive Maya

[KOOKAR]

As is the fiire inside the womb, so is Maya outside. The fire of Maya and that of the womb is similar; the Creator has staged this play. According to his will, a child is born, and the familty is very pleased. Love for the Lord wears off, and the child becomes attached to desires,; the script of maya runs its course.This is Maya by which the Lord is forgotten and emotional attachment and duality well up. Says Nanak, bythe Guru's grace those who enshrine love for god find him, inthe midst of Maya page 921.
