Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those whose minds the True One fills — their work in the world becomes true.
Night and day they serve with effortless poise, absorbed in the True One.
Good actions pour out of what fills the mind.
This verse shows how the inside and the outside connect. "Those whose minds are filled with the True Lord, perform truthful actions." Truth living in the mind flows out as true deeds.
Being honest and good is not built one choice at a time. It pours from what lives in the heart. Think of water from a spring. It tastes of the rocks it comes from.
The way it pours matters too. Sahj si-o means with easy, natural calm. Guru Amar Das loves this word. The service does not strain, because it is not fighting itself. A life soaked in the One does good the way an apple tree grows apples: all the time, quietly, in its season.
When you act well without effort, what is filling you in that moment?
