II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
किती या काळाचा सोसावा वोळसा I
लागला सरिसा पाठोपाठी II
लक्ष चौऱ्याशीची करा सोडवण I
रिघा या शरण पांडुरंगा II
उपजल्या पिंडा मरण सांगाते I
मरते उपजते सवेचि ते II
तुका म्हणे माळ गुंतली राहाटी I
गाड़ग्याची सुटी फुटलिया II
" Man's life span dwindles with each passing moment and breath. In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj urges not to waste this rarest of rare human birth in frivolous pursuits. The true purpose of this rare human birth is to attain the absolute cessation of the vicious cycle of repeated sufferings. Our True Nature is of Pure Consciousness and we forget this reality by ignorance. This ignorance compels us to identify ourselves with the body and not with the Spirit, which is the reason for human bondage leading to wheel of suffering. Sant Tukaram Maharaj says that if we desire to set ourselves free from the painful rotation of rebirths and consequent sufferings, we must realise our True Self while living this life. We must attain Self Realisation while living in this body. This is nothing but the Supreme State of "Living Liberated". If we cannot experience this state of Freedom while living, we will not experience it after death. This is the Eternal Truth and all enveloping reality.
Illustrating this with beautiful analogy Sant Tukaram Maharaj says,
Our earthly life is just like a rotating wheel used to draw water from the well. Our lives are nothing but the buckets placed over the wheel. Repetitive emptying and refilling the buckets is synonymous with the unending cycle of our deaths and rebirths. Sant Tukaram Maharaj says that only if the bucket cracks, it becomes useless and gets detached from the wheel. Just like a cracked bucket, when One attains Self Realisation, the cloak of ignorance is unveiled and the Eternal Truth is realised. The only thing that can competely cut the roots of ignorance is the sword of Divine Knowledge which shines with glory through the incessant recital of Holy Ram Nam. "
