Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Something strange and wonderful happens. What felt far away comes close, and what felt close falls away, once you see things as they truly are.
It is like sweet water made from sugar candy. You can hear all about it. But only the one who drinks it knows the taste.
What felt far away comes close, and what felt close fades, once you see things as they really are.
This is the upside-down riddle at its strongest. Nivrai door, door fun nivrai — the near becomes far, and the far becomes near. Our old sense of distance was upside down all along.
Then the sweetness. Alutee is sugar candy, and baraydaa is sweet water made from it. Jin pee-aa tin jaani-aa — only the one who drinks it knows the taste. Think of trying to explain what a mango tastes like to someone who has never had one. You can talk all day. They will only know when they take a bite. Knowing the One is like that. It cannot be explained, only lived.
What is something you can only really understand by experiencing it, not by being told about it?
