Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
मराठी मूळ
न संडावा आतां ऐसें वाटे ठाव । भयाशी उपाव रक्षणाचा ॥1॥
ह्मणऊनि मनें विळयेलें मन । कारियेकारण चाड नाहीं ॥ध्रु.॥
नाना वीचि उपाधि करूनियां मूळ । राखतां विटाळ तें चि व्हावें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे येथें न वेचे वचन । निजीं निजखूण सांपडली ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I feel I should not leave this place; it offers a remedy for fear, a shield of protection. Therefore, the mind has dissolved into the mind; there is no concern for cause or occasion. Through various modifications and disturbances at their root, preserving purity only produces more impurity. Says Tuka, words are of no use here. In the depths of the self, the self's own truth has been found.
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.
