II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
घोंगडियांची एकी राशी I
त्याचपाशी तेहीं होते II
माझियाचा मान दावा I
केला गोवा उगवू द्या II
व्हावे ऐसे निसंतान I
घेईन आण तुजपाशी II
तुका म्हणे लहान मोठा I
सांडा ताठा हा देवा II
It is said that
" The false concept of " I am the body " arises when the Cosmic Spirit due to Self - forgetfulness views itself as the object of perception. In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about " I am the body " idea which is so catastrophic, for it blinds us completely to our True Nature. He says,
" I am the body " idea is the first misapprehension projected by Maya, the Cosmic Charmer, the non apprehension of reality.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says that this bodily cloak is nothing but a " Quilt " made of the five basic elements that abound in nature. Our brooding over the objects of the senses, the offsprings of Body Consciousness, causes attachment from which lust or craving manifest. The conditioned mind constantly seeks sense gratification. Sant Tukaram Maharaj urges the Divine Lord to help him evade this honey trap of senses. In other words he implores the Lord to show him the way to make this body field to become barren of its progeny of senses and their gratifications.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says that false ego associated with Body Consciousness or " Bodily Quilt " is the foremost evil, and all beings in this world are afflicted with this evil. It is man's paramount duty to understand his bondage of senses born out of " I am the body " idea and reclaim himself from this state of objects and sense slavery. "
