For the one who sees only the One, no one is an enemy and nothing is ever truly lost.
The Arc
The rahau distinguishes talking about the One from truly knowing the essence of union — rare is the servant who does. The middle verse opens into a clear nondual vision: no pain, only peace; only the One seen everywhere; no one bad, all good; no defeat, all victory. The close: never in sorrow, always glad, holding on to nothing, so at one with the One that there is no more coming and going — simply home.
