Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O Siblings of Destiny — the Lord is not found through words alone.
The ego must be rooted out from within. And through the Guru's teachings, the ego-self is eradicated.
All the words in the world don't substitute for the one transformation that matters.
The rahao cuts through the opening paradox: yes, devotees speak — but the divine is not found through words alone. Haumai (ego) must be khoe (rooted out, lost) from within.
This is the distinction between speaking about the divine and being transformed by encounter with the divine. Words can point; only the eradication of ego allows the encounter.
What is the difference between knowing something intellectually and being changed by it? Can you think of something you thought you understood, and then actually understood differently later?
