गाथा 1353The Moral Ideal

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

आर्तभूतांप्रति । उत्तम योजाव्या त्या शिH ॥1॥

फळ आणि समाधान । तेथें उत्तम कारण ॥ध्रु.॥

अल्पें तो संतोषी। स्थळीं सांपडे उदेसीं ॥2॥

सहज संगम । तुका ह्मणे तो उत्तम ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

One's best powers should be directed toward the welfare of suffering beings. The highest fruit and contentment are found precisely there. The one who is content with little finds God readily in any place. Says Tuka, that spontaneous union is the most excellent.

We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
