Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
ब्रह्मYाान जेथें आहे घरोघरीं । सर्व निरंतरी चतुर्भुज॥1॥
पापा नाहीं रीग काळाचें खंडण । हरिनामकीर्तन परोपरी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे हा चि भाव माझ्या चित्तीं । नाहीं आणिकां गती चाड मज॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Where the knowledge of Brahman is in every home, all are like four-armed Vishnu at all times. Sin has no entry, and the power of death is broken, for the chanting of Hari's name resounds everywhere. Says Tuka, this alone is the conviction of my chitta. I have no desire for any other path.
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.
