Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O Siblings of Destiny — give up the love of duality.
Some are liberated through the Guru's teachings. Others wander in reincarnation through the love of duality.
The fork in the road is always the same fork: the teaching versus the ego. Every moment is the fork.
The rahao names the fork in every road: dujaa bhaav (love of duality) leads to bhavsaagar (the ocean of existence, reincarnation); the Guru's teachings lead to liberation (muktaa).
The parallel structure — ke mukti Gur upadees, ke bhavsaagari bhulay — presents these as the two available options and only the two. There is no third path. Every moment is a choosing between these two directions.
In a typical day, what pulls you most consistently toward ego and self-centeredness? And what pulls you toward something larger? Both are real — can you name them?
