By opening the curtain of the pot, [he] gave a sight [to the eyes]. Oh, dear beloved, companion of the soul, friend of the heart.

When Kabir speaks of 'opening the curtain of the pot,' he is referring to lifting the veil of ego and illusion that covers the mind. This 'pot' represents our limited physical existence or ego. When that curtain is lifted, the seeker gains a vision of the Divine. This deep realization shows that the divine companion resides not outside, but within the deepest core of our own being.
