ਸਾਚੀ ਬਾਣੀ ਸਚੁ ਵਖਾਣੈ ਸਚਿ ਨਾਮਿ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਈ ॥੧੯॥
saachee banee sach vakhaanai sach naam liv laa-ee. ||19||
True are their words; they speak only the Truth; they lovingly focus on the True Name. ||19||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Their words are true; they speak only the Truth.
Their love rests on the True Name.
When your love rests on the True Name, truth comes naturally.
Saachee banee sach vakhaanai — true speech speaking truth. Sach means more than accuracy: what is true and lasting. When love is fixed on the True Name, telling the truth stops being a rule you follow and becomes simply what you are.
A Question to Sit With
What makes it easier to tell the truth — trying hard, or having nothing to hide?
