II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
गंधर्वनगरी क्षण एक न राहावे I
तैंचि करावे मूळक्षेत्र II
खपुष्पाची पूजा बांधोनि निर्गुणा I
लक्ष्मीनारायणा तोषवावे II
वंध्यापुत्राच्या लग्नाचा सोहळा I
आपुलिया डोळां पाहो वेगीं II
मृगजळा पाहे घालूनि सज्ञाना I
तापलिया जना निववावे II
तुका म्हणे मिथ्या देहेंद्रीयकर्म I
ब्रम्हार्पण ब्रम्ह होय बापा II
"The material world we live in is very real, but like the mirrors in the house of mirrors, our senses distort our perceptions and we tend to take our distorted perceptions as reality or assume the "I am the body" idea as the Truth, when it is not.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj illustrates this Illusion or "That Which Is Not" with beautiful analogies. He says, it is as unreal as making home a city in clouds born of One's imaginary creation or as illusory as worshipping GOD by offering Him sky as a flower without stringing it in thread or as untrue as attending the wedding of a barren woman's son or as futile as calming the indignant crowd by offering them the waters of a mirage.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, "I am the body" idea is the sense of doership which gives rise to false ego sense. He says, shifting the Doership to GOD is merging the duality of "I-ness" in the ocean of Oneness, for becoming One with the All Pervading and Eternal is the crowning fruition of all endeavors."
