Manmukh is someone who follows his selfish mind. He is controlled by the Five Vices and is a slave of Maya. He does not follow the True Path. Examples of manmukhs are all around you. Anyone who does not follow the Truth is a manmukhs. A gurmukh is the complete opposite. He follows the Gur and the Guru. He operates under direct control of the Param Jyot. Maya is his slave. He follows the True Path. Examples of gurmukhs are Sants, Braham Gyanis, etc. Anyone who has realized Akal Purakh. Gurmukhs speak the Truth, serve the Truth, do the Truth, and are the Truth. Baymukhs are people who turn back on the Gur and the Guru. For example, a baymukh is someone who meets a Puran Sant, follows them, gets blessed, but turns back on them and starts to slander the Puran Sant. Once a baymukh does this he is immediately deprived of his spirituality. He can not even be forgiven by God himself. Only the Sant has the authority to forgive him, and that is when the baymukh realized what great sin he has committed. There is another type of person too, a Sanmukh. A sanmukh is someone who was like a baymukh, but realized his mistake and asked for forgiveness. A sanmukh walks back to the Gur and Guru. He starts following the Truth again.

Please forgive me for any mistakes and if I hurt anyone's feelings.
