II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
नाही सरो येत जोडील्या वचनी I
कवित्वाची वाणी कुशळता II
सत्याचा अनुभव वेधी सत्यपणे I
अनुभवाच्या गुणे रुचो येते II
काय आगीपाशी शुंगारिले चाले I
पोटिंचे उकले कसापाशी II
तुका म्हणे येथे करावा उकल I
लागेचि ना बोल वाढवुनि II
"It is said that "Speech is the mirror of the mind. Wise men speak because they have something to say. Fools because they have to say something."
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about True Wisdom which comes from experience, for experience is a truer guide than words of others.
He says, wisdom before experience is only words, and hence regardless of embellishments, such words hardly make a lasting impact on the listeners. On the other hand a Wise walks his talk and hence his words influence the minds of the listeners to the extent that they try to follow the message in their life. Voice is not just the sound that comes from throat, but the feelings that come from the words. The genuinely of the Wise who speaks true to his actions is reflected in his speech.
Illustrating with beautiful analogy Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the difference between a gold plated and wholly gold becomes evident as soon as it is held against fire. Similarly One cannot bluff for long in the name of GOD. The Truth will come out eventually, for you can run with a lie, but there is no way out of Truth. It will catch you."
