गाथा 3732The Power of the Name

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

भय होतें आह्मीपणें । पाठी येणें घातलें ॥1॥

अवघा आपुला चि देश । काळा लेश उरे चि ना ॥ध्रु.॥

समर्थाचें नाम घेतां । मग चिंता काशाची ॥2॥

तुका ह्मणें नारायणें । जालें जिणें सुखाचें ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

The fear that came from the sense of I and mine has been cast behind. The whole land is now our own, and not a trace of death remains. When one takes the name of the Capable One, what worry can there be? Says Tuka, through Narayana, life has become blissful.

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

नाम महिमा

The Power of the Name

The supremacy of nama-smarana: God's name as the highest practice.
