राम
गाथा 1529The Necessity of Experience

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha

मराठी मूळ

ज्याचा ऐसा अनुभव । विश्व देव सत्यत्वें ॥1॥

देव तया जवळी असे । पाप नासे दरुषणें ॥ध्रु.॥

कामक्रोधा नाहीं चाली । भूतीं जाली समता ॥2॥

तुका ह्मणे भेदाभेद । गेले वाद खंडोनि ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

He whose experience is this, that the world is truly God: God dwells near to that one, and sins are destroyed by his very sight. Lust and anger lose their power, and equality toward all beings is established. Says Tuka, all debates of difference and non-difference have been silenced.
