Enter into the Company of the Holy and Contemplate the Guru's Words (Part 7 of 7)

Sadh Sangat Gur Shabad Viloway
Enter into the company of the holy and contemplate the Guru’s words
Part 7 of 7

Gursikhee da jeevna, jeevdi-aa mar haumai khovay|

Life according to the Guru’s instructions, is that while living die, by destroying ego.

Look at the wonders of the river, a dead body floats down stream. A living person drowns. This means the dead cross easily. If the living ones killed their ego, the 'me', they would cross the river of life too. If they don’t kill the ‘me’ they will struggle with the river of life and drown. While your body is alive kill the 'me'. How did the Gurmukhs kill their ego ?
