They eradicate egotism and attachment from within.
ਮਨੁ ਨਿਰਮਲੁ ਫਿਰਿ ਮੈਲੁ ਨ ਲਾਗੈ ਦਰਿ ਸਚੈ ਸੋਭਾ ਪਾਇਦਾ ॥੧੪॥
man nirmal fir mail na laagai dar sachai sobhaa paa-idaa. ||14||
Their minds are immaculate, and they are never again stained with filth. They are honored at the Door of the True Court. ||14||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Lucky is the heart that finds the True Guru.
Letting go of ego and clinging, it stays clear and clean, and is welcomed with honor at the door of the True Court.
Finding the Guru is one of life's great pieces of luck.
Great fortune, vadbhaag, meets one who finds the Guru. The purified heart is honored at the True Court, a dignity conferred by inner clarity, not rank.
