Sikhism·Raag Aasaa·Shabad 116
Verse 4 of 5

Good Company Sharpens Your Eyes to the One in All

ਸਭ ਮਹਿ ਜਾਨਉ ਕਰਤਾ ਏਕ ॥
sabh meh jaan-o kartaa ayk.
I recognize that the One Creator is contained in all.
ਸਾਧਸੰਗਤਿ ਮਿਲਿ ਬੁਧਿ ਬਿਬੇਕ ॥੩॥
saaDhsangat mil buDh bibayk. ||3||
Joining the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, my understanding is refined. ||3||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

I see that the one Maker is held within all.

Joining the company of the holy, my understanding is refined.

Good company sharpens your eyes to the One in everything, and refines your mind.
The deeper layer

Two gifts of the Sangat: seeing "the One Creator contained in all," and having one's "understanding refined." Good company sharpens the eyes to the One everywhere and polishes the mind. Understanding grows in fellowship, not isolation.

A Question to Sit With

How has being around the right people changed the way you see things?
