So I brought this up in a different post, so I just finished my Japji paath, could not sleep today, its like 4.23 am. Anyway I wanted to understand more of pauri 20, so I went to two random websites and two different translations. What was interesting one looks pure literal translation the other seems Idiomatic translation. Think we need to unify this somehow. Pauri 20 Japji Sahib Ji ਆਪੇ ਬੀਜਿ ਆਪੇ ਹੀ ਖਾਹੁ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਹੁਕਮੀ ਆਵਹੁ ਜਾਹੁ ॥੨੦॥ You shall harvest what you plant. O Nanak, by the Hukam of the Divine Command, we come and go in reincarnation. | 20 | https://www.sikhdharma.org/japji-sahib-translations/ What you sow is what you shall eat . O Nanak, by God's Command, we die and take birth. 20 https://www.sikhiwiki.org/index.php/Learn_all_of_Japji_Sahib#Pauri_20
