If we are pure, we are clean. Then our soul's light can shine through our own mind and we can be creative and beautiful. The real strength, the real beauty, is that of the soul which should not be blocked by the darkness of the mind.

QU: What is purity?

YOGI BHAJAN: Purity is just like a clean house. It makes you feel good. It's the conscious cleanliness, it is the ethics, it is the morals, it is the honesty, it's the commitment. It's a lot of things.
