Steadfastness in sacrifice, austerity and gift, is also called 'Sat' and also action in connection with these (or for the sake of the Supreme) is called 'Sat'.

Steadfastness in sacrifice, austerity and giving is also called Sat, and any action done for that purpose is likewise called Sat.

Sat also names steadfastness in sacrifice, austerity and giving, and any action done for their sake. The word thus covers both the inner commitment and the outward deed. Actions undertaken for these sacred purposes share in the reality the word signifies. The verse rounds off the explanation of the formula, showing how Om, Tat and Sat together sanctify religious life from its beginning, through its intention, to its quality.
