We can only do Naam-Simran with Waheguru’s blessing [this means we can’t do Naam-Simran with our ego, only with God’s blessing]. When we connect to God via Naam-Simran, we stay in state of bliss and pure joy (at Soul level), and we rise above greed of Maya (5 forms).
With God’s blessing, my heart is filled with Love for God and now I don’t ever forget God. When I listen to Naam-simran I have no desire for Moh-Maya. At this stage, with God’s blessing, I am able to tell the difference between good and bad. I am also blessed with company of people connected to Guru. At this stage, we start gaining more respect in the world we live in, we get out of the circle of Sadness and Joy (don’t get depressed or excited by either).
Those people who are stuck in Maya are never happy or content, they spend their whole life thinking they don’t have enough. Only Naam-Simran goes with us when we die, neither son nor does wife.
