Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one who only talks about it is just describing words.
But the one who truly understands recognizes it with quiet, natural ease.
Seeing it and turning it over in my heart, my mind gave in — and gladly.
The great distinction: jin kahiaa tin kahan vakhaaniaa (talkers only elaborate talk) versus jin boojhiaa tin sahj pachhaaniaa (the one who gets it recognizes it with sahj, natural ease). Knowing-about is not knowing. Daykh beechaar mayraa man maaniaa — seeing and reflecting, the mind maaniaa: surrendered, aligned (root of mannai). Understanding, not argument, does the work.
What's something you only understood for real once you experienced it, not just heard about it?
