II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
चुकलिया ताळा I
वाती घालोनि बैसे डोळा II
तैसे जागे करी चित्ता I
काही आपुलिया हिता II
निक्षेपिले धन I
तेथे गुंतलेसे मन II
नाशिवंतासाठी I
तुका म्हणे करिसी आटी II
It is said that
" Like the bees following the queen bee, so too will the senses follow the mind. "
The senses enable to perceive and engage with the world around us. However this may trap us in an illusion that happiness lies in sense gratification. It slips from the memory that the true source of joy and fulfillment lies within us as the Supreme Consciousness, our True Self.
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about inculcating an inward vision as a path to Self Realisation. The Name Worship of Supreme Lord Shri Ram helps quelling the wanderings of mind and ties it to the Indweller, the Supreme Essence.
Just like the care with which a small error is scrutinised to minute details in financial transactions, the seeker of Supreme Self must exercise caution in his journey to Self Realisation.
Illustrating with beautiful analogy he says, inculcating a constant reminder of the Name Worship of Supreme Lord Shri Ram is akin to the knowledge of hidden treasure beneath the earth never leaving the mind of the fence encompassing it ,
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says One must make a conscious effort of not getting trapped into deathly clutches of senses, as the senses as well as body which parents them, is inevitably destined to Perish. "
