Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Make good, right actions your gameboard, and make truth your dice.
Win against craving, anger, greed and clinging. Only a game like this is dear to the One.
Good actions make the board, truth makes the dice, and the opponents to beat live inside you.
Make karam Dharam your cha-uparh, your gameboard. Karam means your actions, and Dharam means doing what is right. So good, fair actions are the board you play on. The dice you throw are sat, truth.
Then there are four opponents to beat: kaam kroDh lobh moh. That means strong craving, anger, greed, and clinging too tightly. They are not other players. They live inside us.
Think of a video game where the final boss is not a monster. It is your own temper, or wanting too much. Aisee khayl har pi-aaree — a game like this is dear to the One. The One loves to watch us play it, and win it from the inside.
Which of your own habits would you most like to win against?
