Many times gursikh veers and bhains ask this question. How to get rid of vikaars (5 vices). Siri Bavan Akhri has given this answer so beautifully as stated above.

The bikaars are destroyed through the Apaar (great) Shabad of Guru. The answer is simple. The act seems to be simple but when it comes to engaging our mind or our surat in Gur-Shabad, we find out how difficult this act is. In the beginning stages, there is a lot of struggle involved. The mind that is used to wandering in 10 sides finds it hard to focus on Gur-shabad. Only after it starts deriving rass from Gur Shabad, does it start enjoying focusing on Naam.

No matter how hard it seems to get focus on Gur-shabad, our duty as humble slaves of the true Guru is to continue to focus on Gur-shabad. Gur-poora has bestowed us with Gur-shabad and we have received this Gur-shabad by offering a very big price - our head. We should not relax and forget Naam. Whether we get rass or not, we should just keep japping Naam, like a crazy person.
