Message: <blockquote data-quote="Archived_Member4" data-source="post: 87707" data-attributes="member: 6184">Keeping it in dreadlocks is not keeping the hair clean and pure. A Sikh purify's the exterior and interior of the body. The Khalsa Panth is the exact definition of inner and outer purity.  Inwardly polluted, and outwardly pure. Those who are outwardly pure and yet polluted within, lose their lives in the gamble. They contract thisterrible disease of desire, and in their minds, they forget about dying. In the Vedas, the ultimate objective is the Naam, theName of the Lord; but they do not hear this, and they wander around like demons. Says Nanak, those who forsake Truth andcling to falsehood, lose their lives in the gamble. || 19 || Inwardly pure, and outwardly pure. Those who are outwardly pureand also pure within, through the Guru, perform good deeds. Not even an iota of falsehood touches them; their hopes areabsorbed in the Truth. Those who earn the jewel of this human life, are the most excellent of merchants. Says Nanak, thosewhose minds are pure, abide with the Guru forever. || 20 || ang 919</blockquote>
