Pyareoooooooooooooo Naam Japo, leave the rest to the guru.
So pyare guru ke pyare pyare gursikho, let us all jap naam with *all* our energies and let the guru do the thinking for us.
When we give our head to the guru, it isn't just some symbolic ritual from the time the panj pyare actually were beheaded - no, giving the head means becoming a slave to the guru.

Thus, it prohibits sikhs from indulging into any illegal activity as well as begging or living on state benefits (apart from the circumstances when you are unable to work) The second one says "naam japo" which means to meditate and remember the name of God/Waheguru at all times.

 Faith: The Newsletter of the ILRS: Autumn 2002
Three basic tenets of Guru Nanak's teachings are (1) Naam Japo — Constant meditating upon God's Name, (2) Kirt Karo — Engage in an honest non-exploitive labor, and (3) Wand Chakko — Share your earnings, out of love and compassion for others.
Sikhism originated from Northern India in the 15th Century and its founder, Guru Nanak emphasized the personal devotion to Divine Spirit and the commitment to social justice and true egalitarianism as a necessary balance to attain enlightenment.
His writings and those of his successors Gurus became part of the Sikh scripture called Guru Granth Sahib (GGS).

Kindly bless me with your Naam, which is the fulfillment, and make me content that way so that may the hunger of my mind be satiated.

 ORIGIN OF THE SAKA RACES - Chapter 3 of `Collapse of the Brahmanist Empire in South Asia', by Khshatrapa Gandasa. On Sakastan or Sakasthan, the homeland of Indo-Scythic peoples.
The main ingredient of Nanak's whole philosophy of spirituality and meaning of life can be put in the nut shell: "kirt kamao, naam japo, wand shakho" ("earn your living truthfully, reflect and meditate on the creator and share your gains with other").
He rejected the Brahmanic concept of "sanyas" as the path of finding enlightenment and proscribes his followers ("Sikh" meaning "disciple" - Pali, "Sikkha") to live the life of a "householder", actively engaged in the social and political life of the community while pursing a spiritual life.
It must be noted that it was only the lower caste Hindus who accepted him as a Sufi saint; none of the Aryan Brahminists did so.

It is clearly brought out in Gurbani, that every age has its religion and its God-ordained seers or prophets, and in the present age, the religion was the awakening of God in man (Naam) in the company of the God-centered or gurmukhs.
uru Nanak's teaching is summed up in "Naam Japo, Kirt Karo, Wand Chhako" i.e.
About Satnam, it is said that it is He Himself and is the primal Name; Naam of Gurbani symbolizes His essence.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji blessed him and told him the three rules all should live by : Naam Japo - Recite the name of the Lord at all times, Kirat Karo - Do an honest days work, Wand Shako - Share your food with those around you.

 archive: Religion to serve the people
Guru Nanak made work an article of Sikh faith: kirt karo (work), vand chhakho (share what you earn) naam japo (take the name of the Lord).
Preachers of religion must emphasise the value of working and earning own livelihood and not to live at other pursuits.
Note the order of priorities: work comes first, charity and prayer come later.

 The Sikhs and the British ? 1849-1920
The three cardinal principles of Guru's teachings were : 'Kirt Karo' (earn your bread though hard labour), 'Vand Chakko' (share you earning with others) and 'Naam Japo' (always remember God).
The Guru brought about a far-reaching transformation in the minds of the people through the institutions of Shabad, Sangat, Pangat, Guru-Ka-Langar, Guru and Dharamshal.
This resulted in building a separate and self-reliant community with new beliefs and institutions.

 In the Footsteps of the Master Chaper 1 at Sikh.net
His basic instruction was NAAM JAPO WAND CHHAKO and DHARAM DI KIRAT KARO.
Making it imperative that one did not have to live in the woods to become a spiritual person.
Translated, it would mean recitation of the Lord’s name in every breath, earning one’s bread with honest means with one’s own hands and sharing the income with the downtrodden.The principle born out of this is 10% contribution of a disciple’s income towards charity.
