Do as you say

ਅਵਰ ਉਪਦੇਸੈ ਆਪਿ ਨ ਕਰੈ ॥

ਆਵਤ ਜਾਵਤ ਜਨਮੈ ਮਰੈ ॥ {ਪੰਨਾ  269}

Avar updesai aap na karai.

Aavat jaavat janamai marai.

There’s an English Saying “practice what you preach”. Guru ji goes a step further and pronounces an indictment for not doing so.

One who preaches others, without practising, orbits in the proverbial cycle of life & death. SGGS 269
