Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha · About Sant Tukaram
॥
मराठी मूळ
काय नव्हे केलें । एका चिंतितां विठ्ठलें ॥1॥
सर्व- साधनांचें सार । भवसिंधु उतरी पार ॥ध्रु.॥
योगायागतपें । केलीं तयानें अमुपें ॥2॥
तुका म्हणे जपा । मंत्र तीं अक्षरी सोपा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
What cannot be accomplished by contemplating Vitthal alone? It is the essence of all spiritual practices, carrying one across the ocean of worldly existence. Through Him, immeasurable sacrifices, rituals, and austerities are performed. Says Tuka, this chant is a simple mantra of just a few syllables.
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.
