II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
उपदेश तो भलत्या हाती I
झाला चित्ति धरावा II
नये जाऊं पात्रावरी I
कवटी सार निराळी II
स्त्री पुत्र बंदीजन I
नारायण स्मरविती II
तुका म्हणे रत्नसार I
परि आधार चिंधिचा II
"It is said that "Don't be fooled by appearance of the doors. You can meet extraordinary beauties behind a shabby door and a wonderful door can be opened to a dump"
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about the mistake we often make of judging someone based on their appearance, for looks can be deceiving. He says, well meaning advice is important, no matter from whom it comes, for many times great words of wisdom are spoken by most ordinary beings.
Illustrating with beautiful analogy Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, if One discards a coconut fruit only because of its woodlike outer shell then he will surely miss the sweetness of very essence of coconut which it holds within.
In another analogy Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, it doesn't matter who encourages us to pursue Name Worship of GOD, for what matters is Holy Ram Nam and nothing else.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, for a Gem wrapped in an ordinary cloth, Gem is a Wisdom and ordinary cloth is the ordinary man who speaks it, the Glory of Wisdom shines only when it is spoken and definitely not when it remains unsaid. In other words, Wisdom feels grateful to the One who speaks it and phrases it for the world to follow."
