II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

बहु जाचलो संसारी I
वसे गर्भी मातेच्या उदरी I
लक्ष चौऱ्यांशी योनिद्वारी I
झालो भिकारी याचक II
जिणे पराधीन आणिकां हाती I
दृढ पाशी बांधलो संचिती I
प्रारब्ध क्रियमाण सांगाती I
भोवंडीती सत्ता आपुलिया II
न भरे पोट नाही विसांवा I
नाही नेम एक ठाव गांवा I
नाही सत्ता न फिरे ऐसी देवा I
लाही जीवा खापरी तडफडी II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj talks about the tossing and turning of his restless mind, just like popping of hot jowar seeds, caught in the tussle  between what he wants to be and what he actually is.
He says, just like a beggar who spent his life sitting on a pot of gold under him the whole time, yet was unaware of it, he has become the One, on his countless journeys from womb to tomb, in quest of the True Happiness, unaware that it is within him.
He says, bound to others by Karmic Debt, the vicious Karmic Cycle seems to be unending.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the journey through the countless species gives neither contentment not  solace, for it is just like a man's wanderings from place to place, who knows not how long he will stay at a particular place.
He says, just like man knows not how to put a stop to his wanderings, he aspires GOD Realisation so that his repeated sufferings will cease forever."
