People who bathe in Naam-Simran in the company (like a pool) of Gurmukhs, their past sins are forgiven (by God). We get God’s blessing and our life becomes pure. When we protect our positive qualities (traits) with Naam-Simran, God blesses us with eternal happiness.
In Sangat (company of Gurmukhs – God’s people) we are protected from distractions of Maya and God becomes our helper. With the bath of Naam-Simran in the pool of God’s people, we are able to find God – who is beginning of all and exists everywhere.
