II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

धन्य बा या ऐशा नारी I
घरी दारी नांदती II
चोरुनिया तुजपाशी I
येती त्यांसी न काळतां II
दोन्ही ठायी समाधान I
सम कठीण बहुतचि II
तुका म्हणे जीवासाठी I
दुर्लभ भेटी ते देवा II

"This composition of Sant Tukaram Maharaj is about the the Knower of Truth who are in the world but not of it.
He says, "Ra" means Moksha or Liberation and "Dha" means striving for that, together they make "Radha", the One striving for being Liberated from the repeated sufferings. The Blessed is Radha, who symbolizes all those women of Gokul who remained absorbed in GOD Krishna while doing their day to day chores.
Elucidating the thought  "the mind open to everything, but attached to nothing", Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, it is living amidst the worldly hubbub, but remaining unattached by it, just as a lotus flower remains untouched by the mud.
He says, Self Quest is like walking on a tight rope, a balancing act between turning inward and  focusing outward, for the Rare One who keeps balance fuels life with hope of Self Realisation.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, Blessed are those who make every moment of their rare human birth count, as an opportunity for GOD Realisation, for the Divine Grace does not let their efforts go in vain."
