Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Really understanding the deep things makes a person truly wise.
And the one who sees the same One living inside everybody has no need to brag or show off.
The letter Nganga redefines what a Pandit (learned scholar) really is: not someone stuffed with facts, but someone who understands — and the proof of that understanding is the disappearance of ego. Ekas naam... ha-umai kathai na koe — one who recognizes the One in all beings does not talk of ego. Real wisdom is quiet. The person who has actually seen the truth stops needing to prove they're clever, because they've seen that the same light is in everyone, including the people they'd have shown off to.
Have you noticed that the people who know the most often brag the least? Why might that be?
