The seeker's mind found the destination of the heart only when You returned from the spaceless realm, descending through sky after sky.
This couplet captures a classic mystical revelation: the spiritual seeker journeys through thoughts of the infinite cosmos, only to discover that the Divine's true dwelling is the human heart. The poet paints a grand picture of the Beloved descending from the spaceless realm beyond ('la-makan') and traversing layered skies, just to reside within our inner being. It warmly reminds us that what seems impossibly vast and distant is actually waiting quietly inside our own chest.
