the way i took this line is that me being a fool i can only establish my bonds after i am slapped with reality--------->>this is like when ur hit with pain and suffering and u come to remeber God and you realize the truth through bani and in that way " through the Lord's Praise, we establish a bond with His Court. "

we only come to realize through his grace

:1singh1: bhul chuk maff this is the way i took the line but one tuk of bani can mean sumthing different to someone else its how we personalize it
