Purity

Heart is the pulpit for offering prayer and must, therefore, be cleaned and purified before we engage in prayer.

Purity of heart consists in:

Respectful and humble attitude towards God free from all cares and anxieties of the world.

The All-knowing Himself sets everything right, to Him, oh Nanak! offer ye thy prayer.

Guru Angad, Maru War M2

With folded hands offer thy prayers.

Guru Arjan, Bhairon M5
