Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Everything that happens moves within the doing of the One.
The One gives each of us our work, watches over all of it, and shows its face to the heart that turns toward the Guru.
The One gives each of us our own work and watches over all of it.
Total divine agency; each being is assigned its own task, and revelation comes to the one who turns toward the Guru. Trust can settle here.
