Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The unseen One is always pure and untouched, needing nothing to hold it up.
And the little light inside you merges into that great Light, like a drop returning to the sea.
The little light inside us and the great Light of the One flow together.
Adisat sadaa rahai niraalam — the Unseen One always stays niraalam. Niraalam means needing nothing to hold it up, clean and untouched. Nothing can stain it.
Then comes the promise: jotee jot milaa-ee — one's light merges into the Light. Jot means light.
Picture a wave on the sea. It rises and seems like its own thing. When it settles, it remembers it was always ocean. Our light is like that wave. It was never apart from the great Light.
What does it feel like to belong to something much bigger than yourself?
