Abhanga 379Confession and Sin

The Sense of Sin

English Translation · I.P. 379

HOW can we constrain you, unless you show us mercy, by any confidence or anticipation of ours! We shall be henceforth as wretched as before, uttering piteous cries. We shall be full of fear and anxious thought; to what shall we attach ourselves ? Tuka says, Our life is void of faith and therefore God remains far from us.

Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
