मराठी मूळ
या चि नांवें दोष । राहे अंतरीं कििल्मष ॥1॥
मना अंगीं पुण्य पाप । शुभ उत्तम संकल्प ॥ध्रु.॥
बिजाऐसीं फळें । उत्तम कां अमंगळें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे चित्त । शुद्ध करावें हे नित ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
What is called sin is merely the impurity that lingers within. Merit and sin dwell in the mind; pure and noble thoughts are their remedy. As the seed, so the fruit: noble or inauspicious. Says Tuka, the chitta should be purified every single day.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
