II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
ढेकर जेवण दिसे साचे I
नाही तरि काचें कुंथाकुंथीं II
हेही बोल तेही बोल I
कोरडे फ़ोल रुचीविण II
गव्हांचिया होती परी I
फकेवरी खाऊं नये II
तुका म्हणे असे हातींचे कांकण I
तयासी दर्पण विल्हाळक II
"It is said that "Nothing ever becomes real till It is experienced-even a proverb is no proverb until your life has illustrated it "
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about futility of mere wording the experience without living it. He says, a belch comes naturally when stomach is full. It is the mark of the contentment One feels from within. However a deliberate sound of belching void of eating food is futile. Similarly GOD is a feeling experience and not a believing experience.
In another analogy Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, many delicacies are made of wheat. But then we do not eat raw wheat. Making delicacies from wheat is an experience and when we eat these delicacies, we actually relish the experience. Some things cannot be taught, they must be experienced. One never learns valuable lessons in life until he goes through his own journey.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, it will be utterly pointless to look in the mirror to enjoy the bangles One is wearing, for value of experience is not in seeing, but in seeing wisely. He says, Knowledge is marvelous, but Wisdom is even better."
