Bhagat Kabir Ji tells us about what happens to us when we recognize our real self. No Paryanam is needed to clean ourselves- we just get cleansed.

ik-okaar satgur parsaad.

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

banDhach banDhan paa-i-aa.

Maya, the Trapper, has sprung her trap.

muktai gur anal bujhaa-i-aa.

The Guru, the Liberated One, has put out the fire.

jab nakh sikh ih man cheenHaa.

When I came to understand this mind, from the tips of my toes to the crown of my head,

tab antar majan keenHaa.

then I took my cleansing bath, deep within my self.

pavanpat unman rahan kharaa.

The mind, the master of the breath, abides in the state of supreme bliss.

nahee mirat na janam jaraa.

There is no death, no re-birth, and no aging for me now.

ultee lay sakat sahaaraN.

Turning away from materialism, I have found intuitive support.

paiseelay gagan majhaaraN.

I have entered into the sky of the mind, and opened the Tenth Gate.

bayDhee-alay chakar bhuangaa.

The chakras of the coiled Kundalini energy have been opened,

bhaytee-alay raa-ay nisangaa.

and I have met my Sovereign Lord King without fear.

chookee-alay moh ma-i-aasaa.

My attachment to Maya has been eradicated;

sas keeno soor giraasaa.

the moon energy has devoured the sun energy.

jab kumbhak bharipur leenaa.

When I was focused and merged into the all-pervading Lord,

tah baajay anhad beenaa.

then the unstruck sound current began to vibrate.

baktai bak sabad sunaa-i-aa.

The Speaker has spoken, and proclaimed the Word of the Shabad.

suntai sun man basaa-i-aa.

The hearer has heard, and enshrined it in the mind.

kar kartaa utras paaraN.

Chanting to the Creator, one crosses over.

kahai kabeeraa saaraN.

Says Kabeer, this is the essence.
