ਨਾਮਿ ਇਸਨਾਨੁ ਕਰਹਿ ਸੇ ਜਨ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਸਬਦੇ ਮੈਲੁ ਗਵਾਈ ॥੧੪॥
naam isnaan karahi say jan nirmal sabday mail gavaa-ee. ||14||
Those who cleanse themselves through the Naam, are the most immaculate people; through the Shabad, they wash off their filth. ||14||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The people who bathe in the Naam — remembering the One — are the cleanest of all.
Through the Word, they wash away the dirt that gathers on a heart.
The Name rinses the dust off a heart.
Naam isnaan — bathing in the Name makes a person nirmal (immaculate). The shabad washes off mail, the film of ego-dust. Cleanliness here is entirely inward.
