II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

पैल घरी झाली चोरी I
देहा करी बोंब मारी II
हांवा हांवा करिसी काय I
फिराऊनि नेट्या वाव II
सांडूनिया शुद्धी I
निजलासी गेली बुद्धि II
चोरी तुझा काढिला धुर I
वेगळे भावा घातले दूर II
भलतियासी देसी वाव I
लाहेसि तू एवढा ठाव II
तुका म्हणे अजूनी तरी I
उरले ते जतन करी II


 "I Am He, the Lord Supreme", is the natural vibration of the Self, which occurs spontaneously with each incoming and outgoing breath. The unborn soul is aware of its Oneness with the Supreme Self. However with birth everything suddenly changes and the soul now assuming a form comes under the spell of Maya, the Mistress of Illusion. The touch of this spell gives rise to "I am the body" idea thus making the newborn to cry as "I Am The Body" instead of  "I Am He", which is the expression of his disconnection from all pervading Supreme Consciousness.
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj elucidates this thought. He says, as soon as One is born, the Maya robs the Body Consciousness, stealing the memory of its connection with Supreme Consciousness, and hence the Body Consciousness laments of this profound loss.
He says, "I am the body" idea which is born from ignorance is the root cause of all sufferings. Due to this ignorance One is unable to discriminate between what is good and what is bad for him. And hence One remains unaware even if something precious is stolen from him. The body centric thinking makes this happen and hence One tends to give undue importance to this ever dwindling body instead of doing conscious effort of transcending beyond Body Consciousness in this rare human birth.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, Conscience being man's compass, One must use the the sense of discrimination, a faculty unique to we humans, to make this rare human birth worthwhile, because life is too short and the time is always right to do what is right."
