II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
कथनी पठनी करुनि काय I
वांचूनि रहणी वायां जाय II
मुखी वाणी अमृतगोड़ी I
मिथ्या भुके चरफडी II
पिळणी पाक करितां दगड़ा I
काय जड़ा होय ते II
मधु मेळवुनि माशी I
आणिका सांसी पारधिया II
मेळवूनि धन मेळवी माती I
लोभ्या हाती तेचि मुखी II
आपले केले आपण खाय I
तुका वंदी त्याचे पाय II
"It is said that "Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart, for who looks outside, dreams and who looks inside, awakes."
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, though Spiritual books and discourses are faithful mirrors that reflect to our mind the mind of the Spiritually Wise, it is up to us to subject ourselves to constant introspection of whether whatever we are pursuing on our Self Quest is really getting absorbed or not. He says, mere knowledge is of no value until it is put into practice, for knowledge that comes through experience is the Real Knowledge. Adorable is the One who walks his talk.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj has exemplified to elucidate this thought. He says, One must be careful of the smiling sweet talkers, for their tongue mouthing sweet words often hide the venom unseen to eyes.
He says, raw food softens when cooked but stones do not, for a hypocrite seldom transforms.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, all endeavors are worth only if One can enjoy the fruits of it himself. Illustrating this thought with beautiful analogies he says, a honey collected by Honey Bee by sheer hardwork is relished by all but for the Honey Bee.
He says, a miser grows rich by seeming poor. He puts his wealth into a coffer and hides it underground. Being reluctant to spend he saves it for those who will bury him. In other words the miser robs himself.
Illuminating the phenomenal role experience plays on our journey of Self Realisation Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, more than mere bookish knowledge, the setbacks and grieves we endure help us in our marching forward to the true purpose of this rare human birth, the Liberation."
