Original Marathi from the Tukaram Gatha
मराठी मूळ
तुज च पासाव जालोंसों निर्माण । असावें तें भिन्न कासयानें ॥1॥
पाहावा जी ठायीं करूनि विचार । नुन्य कोठें फार असे चि ना ॥ध्रु.॥
ठेविलिये ठायीं आYोचें पाळण । करूनि जतन राहिलोंसें ॥2॥
तुका ह्मणें आतां बोलतसें स्पष्ट । जालों क्रियानष्ट तुह्माऐसा ॥3॥
Tukaram Gatha (Marathi Wikisource)
English Translation
I was created from You alone. Why then should there be any separation? Look within and consider: there is nothing more or less anywhere. I have remained where You placed me, obeying Your command and guarding myself carefully. Says Tuka, now I speak plainly. I have become like You, indifferent to ritual action.

The Necessity of Experience
Why direct experience of God, not mere learning, is the only path.
