Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
जग अमंगळ । लागे देखतां विटाळ ॥1॥
धर्म भूतांची ते दया । सत्य कारण ऐसीया ॥ध्रु.॥
नव्हे माझें मत । साक्षी करूनि सांगें संत ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे जीवें । दावी उमटूनि अनुभवें ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The world without God is impure; merely looking at it brings contamination. True religion is compassion for all beings; this alone is the real principle. This is not just my opinion; I call the saints themselves as witnesses. Says Tuka, one must show this truth through one's own lived experience, stamped visibly upon one's life.
