Please note all errors are mine and I stand corrected.ESSENCE: In the salok, Guru ji state the infiniteness of the creator and enormous value in of knowing so for salvation. Guru ji find the company and the virtues of the pious as being with the likeness of creator.
Guru Arjan Dev ji in Astpadi 7, 1st stanza describe what happens when one finds company of a truly pious. The goodness shows, the dirt of mind is eliminated, ego is erased, better thoughts come about, one start seeing the creator in nearness many conflicts of mind are resolved. All this leads to resulting discovery of fundamental understanding through directed effort.
Guru ji value such company of the pious so highly and liken it to the pious being like the creator.
Sat Sri Akal.
