गाथा 316Worldly Life

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

विधीनें सेवन । विषयत्यागातें समान ॥१॥

मुख्य धर्म देव चित्तीं । आदि अवसान अंतीं ॥ध्रु.॥

बहु अतिशय खोटा । तर्कें होती बहु वाटा ॥२॥

तुका म्हणे भावें । कृपा करीजेते देवें ॥३॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

Enjoying the senses according to scriptural injunction is equal to renouncing them. The chief duty is to hold God in one's chitta, from beginning to end. Excessive cleverness is false; logic only multiplies paths. Says Tuka, through devotion, God bestows grace.

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

संसार

Worldly Life

The perplexities of action, karma, and navigating life in the world.
