II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

पर्जन्य पडावे आपुल्या स्वभावें  I
आपुल्याला देवे पिके भूमि II
बीज तेचि फळ येईल शेवटी I
लाभ हानि तुूटी ज्याची तया II
दीपाचिये अंगी नाही दूजा भाव I
धणी चोर साव सारिखेची II
काउळे ढोंपरा कंकर तित्तिरा I
राजहंसा चारा मुक्ताफळे II
तुका म्हणे येथे आवडी कारण I
पिकला नारायण जया तैसा II

It is said that " Do good to others. It will come back in unexpected ways."
In the similar way it is our outlook that decides how we will be rewarded. In this composition, Sant Tukaram Maharaj has elucidated this thought.
 Illustrating with a beautiful analogy he says that rain showers at its own free will but the quality of soil decides the yield One gets out of it. Only fertile seeds await to sprout. The returns One might get depends on a roll of fate's dice.
The light of the lamp brightens the path without bias.It is least concerned of whether it comforts a pious soul or it aids a burglar.It is the intention that decides the outcome One gets of his deeds.
Similarly, One seeks food according to his liking. The food of Crows and Partridges differ from that of Swan, a mythological bird symbolising Supreme Spirit, who is believed to eat pearls.
A devotion to Supreme Lord being the most  cherished food of thought for His seeker will reward him with a blessing of Eternal Happiness forever.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says that the Divine Lord Narayan rewards according to the outlook with which One seeks Him.
