The passage below outlines the words spoken by Guru Gobind Singh when one of his wives, Mata Jito, passed away.
ਧਨ ਨਾਰੀ ਧਨ ਭਜਨ ਹੈ ਧਨ ਕਲਜੁਗ ਜਗਈਸ਼।
"Blessed are Women! Blessed is devotional worship! Blessed is Kaliyuga, and the Master of the World!
ਮਹਾਂ ਬਿਕਾਰੀ ਜੁਗ ਤਰੇ ਭਜਨ ਤਰਾਏ ਕੀਸ ।੩।
*In Kaliyuga* great sinners have been carried across *into salvation*, devotion has carried across the most vice ridden people.
.
ਨਾਰੀ ਦਇਆ ਅਨੰਤ ਹੈ ਜਾਂ ਜਗੁ ਭੀਤਰ ਭਾਖਿ ।
Women possess endless compassion, the whole world utters this truth.
ਖਟ ਸ਼ਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੜ ਕਿਯਾ ਕਰੈ ਨਾਮ ਜਪਤਿ ਮਨ ਰਾਖਿ ।੪। What will reading the Six Shastras do? Ones mind is saved through the recitation of Naam."
