Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
काम क्रोध आह्मी वाहिले विठ्ठलीं । आवडी धरिली पायांसवें ॥1॥
आतां कोण पाहे मागें परतोनि । गेले हारपोनि देहभाव ॥ध्रु.॥
रििद्धसिद्धी सुखें हाणितल्या लाता । तेथें या प्राकृता कोण मानी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे आम्ही विठोबाचे दास । करूनि ठेलों ग्रास ब्रह्मांडाचा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I have surrendered lust and anger to Vitthal and fixed my love upon his feet. Now who would look back? All sense of the body has vanished. Spiritual powers and pleasures have been kicked aside; who then would care for these worldly things? Says Tuka, we are Vithoba's servants; we have swallowed the entire universe in one mouthful.
We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram ji’s original Marathi.
Surrender and Acceptance
The conditions of spiritual receptivity and the letting go of the separate self.
