II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
मुक्त तो आशंक नाही जया अंगी I
बद्ध मोह संगी लज्जा चिंता II
सुख पावे शांती धरुनि एकांत I
दुःखी तो लोकांत दंभ करी II
तुका म्हणे लागे थोडाच विचार I
परी हे प्रकार नागविती II
"It is said that " Doubts are for Faithless and Faith is for Doubtless."
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about Doubtless Awareness. He says, if Self Realisation is the foothill of a large mountain, then Doubtless Awareness is the peak of that mountain, the pinnacle of Spiritual Quest. On the other hand One who is strongly in the grip of "I am the body" idea considers himself to be the doer. This sense of doership is the mother of all worries. Worry, Doubt, Fear and Despair are the the real roadblocks on our journey of Self Realisation.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, only when there is freedom from Doership, your True Self emerges from within. Sense of Doership always creates boundaries while Liberation happens when One has a sense of Understanding.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, One needs a courage of conviction to walk on the path of Self Realisation which is the journey within. It is all about looking at Self. It is a journey from Self to Self and hence it is natural that One seeking dialogue with Self seeks Solitude. Solitude is a conscious choice to reflect and to be at ease with Oneself in the absence of activity. It is but a way of giving a reflective thought on the path of Self Quest, a journey within. On the other hand an impostor with pompous display may catch attention of people for sometime, but it does not last long. The impostor is unaware that in deceiving others, he is hurting himself and in a way losing everything he has earned knowingly or unknowingly.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, in our worldly life, all our endeavors are only to seek pleasure from senses and we feel that sense gratification is the real happiness. But what we get from it most of the times is suffering. In a way, our worldly living then becomes a journey from illusory happiness to sufferings. On the other hand the journey to Self Realisation is the journey other way round, from worldly sufferings to True Eternal Happiness of Supreme Self. This is possible only when we make a conscious effort to find out the root of all our sufferings and then do everything possible analogous to it, to be free from its bondage. He says, actually very little is needed to seek happiness. It is all within yourself and in your way of thinking. "
