Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
मुH तो आशंका नाहीं जया अंगीं । बद्ध मोहोसंगीं लज्जा चिंता ॥1॥
सुख पावे शांती धरूनि एकांत । दुःखी तो लोकांत दंभ करी ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे लागे थोडा च विचार । परी हे प्रकार नागविती ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
Liberated is the one who has no anxiety within. The bound one is the one attached to worldly delusion, shame, and worry. The peaceful one finds joy in solitude, while the unhappy one makes a show of piety before the crowd. Says Tuka, only a little reflection is needed, but these appearances deceive many.
This translation is auto-generated and may contain errors. We ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies in rendering Tukaram’s original Marathi.
Renunciation
The case for letting go of worldly attachments and turning wholly to God.
