Couplet 8

تن ز جان و جاں ز تن مستور نیست
The body from rooh and rooh from body are not hidden to each other


لیک کسرا    دید جاں    دستور نیست
But you haven't developed the way to see the eyes and ears of the rooh

            This is an example of the description above that see how close are the body and rooh but despite this nearness, it is not possible to see the rooh. Thus having in vicinity does not mean the comprehension of the same until you possess the perceptive intellect to comprehend this. Similarly, despite having proof, it is not possible for everyone to comprehend and understand my pain.

           [Another explanation could be that though there is no distance between the rooh and body of a person. But despite this nearness, one cannot understand the requirements of the rooh as one doesn’t possess the eyes and ears of rooh (i.e. requisite senses), as the requirement discern through external senses are not that of rooh.]
