Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
पुराणप्रसिद्ध सीमा । नामतारकमहिमा ॥1॥
मागें जाळी महा दोष । पुढें नाही गर्भवास ॥ध्रु.॥
जें निंदिलें शास्त्रें । वंद्य जालें नाममात्रें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे ऐसा । त्रिभुवनीं नामठसा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The saving power of the Name is well-established in the Puranas. It burns away great sins from the past and ensures there is no future birth in the womb. What was condemned by the scriptures has become venerable by the Name alone. Says Tuka, such is the seal of the Name upon all three worlds.
