Gristi is a Punjabi word for the 'life of a householder'. Sikhi promotes the adherent to live their life as members of a household and family. A Sikh is expected to play their part in a family unit and as part of a community.
| ਗਿਰਹੀ ਮਹਿ ਸਦਾ ਹਰਿ ਜਨ ਉਦਾਸੀ ਗਿਆਨ ਤਤ ਬੀਚਾਰੀ ॥ ਸਤਿਗਰ ਸੇਵਿ ਸਦਾ ਸਖ ਪਾਇਆ ਹਰਿ ਰਾਖਿਆ ਉਰ ਧਾਰੀ ॥੨॥ |
| Girhī meh saḝĝ har jan uḝĝsī giĝn ṯaṯ bīcẖĝrī. Saṯgur sėv saḝĝ sukẖ pĝiĝ har rĝkẖiĝ ur ḝẖĝrī. (2) |
| Immersed in family life, the Lord's humble servant ever remains detached; he reflects upon the essence of spiritual wisdom. Serving the True Guru, he finds eternal peace, and he keeps the Lord enshrined in his heart. (2) |
