Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Dyed in the Naam, the talk with the Siddhas happens.
Dyed in the Naam, your whole life is deep, steady practice.
Dyed in the Naam, you live the true and best way.
Dyed in the Naam, you think on the One's goodness and on wisdom.
Without the Naam, everything you say is useless.
Nanak says: those dyed in the Naam are cheered in victory.
Talk about deep things comes alive when it is rooted in the Naam.
Talk about deep things comes alive when it grows from the Naam. Naam ratay siddh gosht ho-ay: dyed in the Naam, the talk with the Siddhas happens, and the Sidh Gosht takes its name from this line. Tap, hard spiritual practice, becomes steady devotion, never self-punishment.
A Question to Sit With
