God's Generosity and Condescension
English Translation · I.P. 296
OW beneath this strong compulsion the lord of Pandhari stands ready and waiting for us. Now lot us receive into our hearts him whose limit cannot be discerned. We have forgotten our bodily form and have ensnared him by repeating his name. He considers not race, family or name, when he purposes to save his saints. It is good that we have found the secret; we need wander no more in search of it. He is immortal, full of help, a generous master; the four-armed God respects his saints. lie makes himself great and small as he pleases; his form is fair and lovely; he is full of love to the devout, he shows his respect to the saints by employing their aid: we have found this secret, therefore we have come to supplicate the saints. Tuka says, I will cleave to the lord of Pandhari with perfect devotion.
