Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The quiet sages, and the old holy books people have pored over for ages, all point the same way.
Serve the One, the ocean of mercy, and you find what is true — and this life and whatever lies beyond are both made beautiful.
The wise people and holy books of old all point to the same thing: serve the One, the ocean of kindness.
The verse names three kinds of old holy books from India. The Simritees are books of teachings and rules. The Puraanas are books of old stories. The Vedas are the oldest hymns. It names the quiet sages too.
It listens to all of them and hears them agree: kirpaa sinDh sayv sach paa-ee-ai. Serve the ocean of mercy, and you find what is true.
Think of friends from different schools who all give you the same directions to a place. When they agree, you trust the way. The verse names these books with respect, and it is glad to hear them all say one thing.
Have you ever noticed two very different people arriving at the same simple wisdom?
