Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whatever the One does, they take as good — and that acceptance is their real worship.
They see friend and enemy as the same; this is the true sign of union.
A heart set free trusts the One and sees the One in everyone.
The verse names two signs of a free heart. The first is trust. Jo kichh kee-o so-ee bhal maanai — whatever the One does, they take it as good. This is not giving up. It is a deep trust that even hard days belong to a bigger good. That trust is their devotion.
The second is equal eyes. Mitar satar sabh ayk samaanay — friend and enemy look the same to them. They see the same One in each person. So the heart stops sorting the world into "my side" and "the other side." Think of a coach who cheers a great play, whichever team made it. This, says the verse, is the real sign of jog, yoga, which means union. It matters more than any pose or posture.
How differently would you move through a day if you saw the same light in everyone, even those you clash with?
