राम
गाथा 3947The Power of the Name

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram

मराठी मूळ

 भूमीवरि कोण ऐसा । गांजूं शके हरिच्या दासा॥1॥

 सुखें नाचा हो कीर्त्तनीं । जयजयकारें गर्जा वाणी ॥ध्रु.॥

 काळा सुटे पळ । जाती दुरितें सकळ ॥2॥

 तुका ह्मणे चित्तीं । सांगूं मानाची हे निति ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

Who on this earth can trouble the servant of Hari? Dance joyfully in kirtan and let your voices roar with victory. Death itself takes flight, and all sins are scattered. Says Tuka, I speak from the chitta: this is the true teaching of honor.

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.
