राम
गाथा 2395The Necessity of Experience

Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha

मराठी मूळ

लाभ खरा नये तुटी । नाहीं आडखळा भेटी ॥1॥

जाय अवघिया देशा । येथें संचलाची तैसा ॥ध्रु.॥

मग न लगे पारखी। अवघीं सकट सारखीं । तुका ह्मणे वोळे । रूपें भुलविले डोळे ॥3॥

Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)

English Translation

True profit cannot be lost. There is no obstacle to this meeting. It travels to every land, yet remains exactly as it is. Then no appraiser is needed; all vessels measure the same. Says Tuka, His forms enchant the eyes.
