ਚੰਦੁ ਸੂਰਜੁ ਦੁਇ ਜੋਤਿ ਸਰੂਪੁ ॥
chand sooraj du-ay jot saroop.
The moon and the sun are both the embodiment of light.
ਜੋਤੀ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਅਨੂਪੁ ॥੧॥
jotee antar barahm anoop. ||1||
Within their light, is God, the incomparable. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The moon and the sun are both made of light.
And within that light is the One, beyond compare.
The same one light shines in things that look completely different.
Two things that seem opposite — sun and moon — are both, at heart, light. And within that light lives the One, beyond compare (brahm anoop): one reality shining through different forms.
A Question to Sit With
Can you think of two very different things that are made of the same stuff underneath?
