Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This means to live an honest life. You should earn and make a living honestly without exploitation or fraud. One should never exploit others for their own happiness. Earning without fraud and working diligently is what Guru Nanak Dev preached all his life and also teaches others to do the same.

Detailed explanation-2: -The teachings of Guru Nanak Dev show us the path of establishing a just social order. The social order of his time was based on inequality and injustice. He not only condemned but challenged that order in which the dominant forces of all shades were exploiting the marginalised sections.

Detailed explanation-3: -Live a life of decency, high moral values and spirituality.

Detailed explanation-4: -There is a famous saying of Guru Nanak’s: “Truth is high, but higher still is truthful living.” By this he means that living truthfully, showing devotion to truth through one’s behavior and actions, brings one closer to spiritual awakening and to God. Righteousness and morality are central to the practice of Sikhism.
