Those who act in ego do not go beyond karma. It is only by Guru's Grace that one is rid of ego.

By Guru's Grace, it is implanted within the mind.

By Guru's Grace, the Lord comes to abide in the mind, and the filth of egotism is dispelled.

Those upon whom He casts His Glance of Grace become His happy soul-brides. One who recognizes her Lord and Master places her body and mind in offering before Him. Within her own home, she finds her Husband Lord; her egotism is dispelled. O Nanak, the happy soul-brides are embellished and exalted; night and day they are absorbed in devotional worship.

When God Himself bestows His Glance of Grace, He blends us into Himself.

The world is burning in the fire of desire, in greed, arrogance and excessive ego.
