Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
देव होसी तरी आणिकांतें करिसी । संदेह येविशीं करणें न लगे ॥1॥
दुष्ट होसी तरी अणिकांतें करिसी । संदेह येविशीं करणें न लगे ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे जें दर्पणीं बिंबलें । तें तया बाणलें निश्चयेसीं ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
If you are godly, you will make others godly too. There is no doubt about this. If you are wicked, you will make others wicked. There is no doubt about this either. Says Tuka, whatever is reflected in the mirror is exactly what enters your being, without question.
