ਸਚਹੁ ਓਰੈ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਉਪਰਿ ਸਚੁ ਆਚਾਰੁ ॥੫॥
Truth is higher than everything, but higher still is truthful living. ||5||
‍
The above-stated Pangti (line) means that living in accordance with the truth is more important than knowing the truth. Guru Sahibs’ have told us that the Naam (God’s name) is the highest truth and we have to connect to it. Now you know the truth but it is pointless if you do not act upon it. Somebody who lives up to that truth is higher than someone who just knows the truth. Living up to Guru Sahibs’ teachings and Rehit Maryada (spiritual code of conduct) is higher than knowing them. Sikhi is about Karni (Doing) through three ways which are Man (what you think with your mind), Bach (the words you speak), and Karam (the actions you do).
