Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One forgives those who come to its shelter and blends them into itself, without a moment's delay.
It is the source of bliss, the Greatest; through the true teaching, we are joined in union.
The verse is pure reassurance about the speed and completeness of grace: those who take sanctuary are forgiven and "blended with Himself" — "He does not delay for an instant." There is no probation, no waiting period; the forgiveness and the union are immediate. This answers a deep fear — that we must first become good enough to be received. No: come to the shelter, and the embrace is instant. The One is "the source of bliss," and union is offered without delay to whoever turns.
What if you didn't have to become 'good enough' first — what if turning toward the good was itself enough to be received?
