I have become the master of the village (the body, because I) have reined the five rivals in. -Guru Arjun Sahib, Guru Granth Sahib, 73
Message: Guru Arjun Sahib gives us a very positive message, that he has become the master of the village � the body – and has reined in the five evil passions: lust, wrath, greed, avarice, worldly attachments, and egoism. Guru Sahib calls these five vices �rivals�. Though it is very difficult in this world for us to fully control the five destructive emotions, we should not give up our efforts to purify our mind.
Etymology: From Sanskrit�pi?d (body) ? Punjabi pi?d (village).
