Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When true wisdom is met, the darkness of not-knowing lifts and the heart lights up.
You find a jewel of real understanding — and then the restless wandering finally stops.
The verse is about the moment the fog clears: meeting the Guru, the darkness of ignorance is removed and wisdom illumines the heart. And its fruit is the end of restlessness — they do not wander any longer. So much of our searching is a kind of wandering in the dark, looking for a light-switch. When understanding comes, you don't have to keep roaming; you've found the jewel you were looking for, and you can finally settle. Light doesn't just help you see — it lets you stop pacing.
When something finally made sense, did you feel calmer and less restless?
