गाथा 3419The Necessity of Experience

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

स्वामीचें हें देणें । येथें पावलों दर्षणें ॥1॥

करूं आवडीनें वाद । तुमच्या सुखाचा संवाद ॥ध्रु.॥

कळावया वर्म । हा तों पायांचा चि धर्म ॥2॥

तुका ह्मणे सिद्धी । हे चि पाववावी बुद्धी ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

This is the gift of the Master; here I have attained His vision. Let us engage in loving discourse about the joy that is Yours. To know the secret is itself the dharma of the feet. Says Tuka, this is the wisdom that should be brought to perfection.

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