Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
मुख्य आधीं विषयत्याग । विधिभाग पाळणें ॥1॥
मन पावे समाधान । हें चि दान देवाचें ॥ध्रु.॥
उदासीन वृित्त देहीं। चाड नाहीं पाळणें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणे नाहीं भय । सम सोय विषमाची॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
The foremost step is the renunciation of sense-pleasures and the observance of sacred law. When the mind attains contentment, that itself is God's gift. An attitude of detachment toward the body, without care for its maintenance, is the way. Says Tuka, then there is no fear; the uneven path becomes level.
