Vedicism professed that sins can be erased by rituals such as bathing in pilgrimage sites, or worship rituals. In the west, indulgences/Sins could be erased by paying money/charity to the church
The writers of gurubani give us the "satguru prasad" way of destroying our sins. It is accessible to anyone at anytime and requires no pilgrimages, austerities or "charitable donations". Best of all, there is no confession of guilt.
"Paapaan da naas" (destruction of sins) can only be done with the help of Satguru.
Satguru throws paaps/sins out of our ghar/ house/mind.
He does this by freeing you of bharam (false superstitious beliefs). These bharam introduce fear by giving rise to sin and virtues.
Paap and Punn (sins and virtues) are both produced by bharam. The priest first introduces the bharam, and when you believe the bharam creates sins and virtues based on that bharam to monetarily benefit from your fear of an afterlife of hell.
The gurmukh does not live in fear of sin and virtue. They are thrown out of his mind/house.
