II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

सारावी लिगाड़े धरावा सुपंथ I
जावे उसंतीत हळूहळू II
पुढे जातियाचे उमटले माग I
भांबावले जग आडराने II
वेचल्याचा पाहे वरावरि झाड़ा I
बळाचा निधडा पुढिलिया II
तुका म्हणे जैसी दाखवावी वाणी I
ते द्यावी भरोनी शेवट तो II

"The most adventurous journey to embark on is the journey to your True Self, for life's journey on earth is the only Sacred travel."
In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about what the seeker on his journey of Self Realisation must do and what he must avoid to save him from going astray. He says, Self Quest is a marathon and not a sprint and hence the seeker on his Self Quest needs to pace him accordingly, for slow and steady always wins the race.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the seeker of his True Self must consciously refrain from mere emulating the footsteps of the Wise, for what is much needed is to seek what the Wise sought. But those who do not adhere to the path led out by the Wise are sure to get astray just like a sheep without a shepherd.
Sant Tukaram  Maharaj says, this rare human birth is the only ephemeral that has lasting value, for only in this precious birth One can strive for Liberation. And hence he says, the seeker on his Self Quest must constantly introspect and find out whether his life is moving forward towards his goal or just moving like a pendulum. A conscious look within to find out about how many negative traits were eliminated and how many virtues he was successful  inculcating in him is of paramount importance, for better to introspect than regret. Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, maintaining pace despite these speed breakers is a challenge, for only those who meet this challenge are souls of great strength and courage who deserve to attain the Highest, Self Realisation.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, words are meaningless without intent and follow through. He says, the seeker on his journey of Self Realisation needs to live what he believes in and be the change himself, for action expresses priorities. He says, faith is all about doing. You are how you act, not just how you believe "
