II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
घ्या रे भाई घ्या रे भाई I
कोणी काही थोड़े बहु II
येच हाटी येच हाटी I
बांधा गांठी पारखुन II
वेंच आहे वेंच आहे I
सरले पाहें मग खोटे II
उघड़े दुकान उघड़े दुकान I
रात्री जाली कोण सोडी मग II
तुका म्हणे अंतकाळी I
जाती टाळी बैसोनि II
"It is said that "The trouble is, you think you have time."
In the ephemeral human existence, One must understand his true worth and accordingly value his life. In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, our worldly life is like a marketlplace. If One does not define himrself in it, he will not be able to do the proper valuation correctly and hence will err in his judgement. He says, the quest of our True Self is all about how much importance we give to our worldly life which is full of unending desires and sense gratification. He says, fame is fleeting, popularity is temporary. We must not spoil what we have by desiring what we do not. He says, man considers his body as his greatest asset, ignoring the eternal truth that our bodies are perishable. Wealth is not at all permanent and death is always nearby. Hence we must immediately engage in acts of merit such as absorbing ourselves in Holy Ram Nam instead of chasing frivolous pursuits.
Illustrating with beautiful analogy Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, our mouth is like a wearhouse. A conscious effort to load it with a merchandise of Holy Ram Nam instead of anything else is much needed before the sun of life sets, thereby snatching the only chance we have to transcend the endless sufferings.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, blessed is the One who understands the ephemeral nature of this human birth, and hence he will be cautious not to let go even a moment without reciting the Holy Ram Nam, for Faith is the Eternal Elixir."
