Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have seen the One among the yogis and those who have given up the world, among those who never marry, the wandering hermits, and the ones in patched coats.
I have seen the One among those who keep hard disciplines and the silent sages, and in actors, in plays, and in dances.
Every kind of seeker, and even the stage and the dance, can show you the One.
Jog bhaykh sanni-aasai: yogis and those who have renounced the world. Jat jangam kaaprhaa-ay: those who stay unmarried, wandering hermits, and wearers of patched coats. Tapee tapeesur mun: people of strict discipline and silent sages. Then, surprisingly, nat naatik nirtaa-ay: actors, plays and dancers. The quiet paths and the joyful arts are held with equal respect.
What surprising place might goodness be hiding that you tend to overlook?
