Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One is out in the open in everything bright and visible — and also folded quietly inside what is hidden, even in the deep dark we cannot see into.
Nanak says: from the very start, all the way through, right to the end, it is the same One, holding it all. Think on what is True.
Ekai pargat, ekai gupta, ekai dhundhookaaro — the One as revealed, as hidden, and as the formless dark before things take shape. Guru Arjan sweeps every category into the single reality: aad madh ant — beginning, middle, end — is the One. To saach beechaaro is to reflect on this as the one true, enduring thing.
Where do you notice the One most — in bright, obvious things, or in quiet hidden ones?
