Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
॥
मराठी मूळ
चित्त समाधानें । तरी विष वाटे सोनें ॥१॥
बहु खोटा अतिशय । जाणां भले सांगों काय ॥ध्रु.॥
मनाच्या तळमळें । चंदनें ही अंग पोळे ॥२॥
तुका म्हणे दुजा । उपचार पीडा पूजा ॥३॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
When the mind is at peace, even poison turns to gold. Know this well, O good people, for the opposite is also true. When the mind is restless, even sandalwood burns the skin. Says Tuka, any remedy applied to a divided mind only adds to the torment.
