II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
भविष्याचे माथां I
भजन न द्यावे सर्वथा II
माग लागला न संडी I
आळस माती घाली तोंडी II
हाती हित आहे I
परि न करिसी पाहे II
"Destiny may provide a meal, yet without the movement of hands, the food will not enter the mouth."
Elucidating this thought in this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, fate cannot succeed without efforts. Just like putting in efforts is in our hands, the end result not, it will be unjust to say that worship of GOD will happen if "I am destined to", or "I will do it when I will become old". Our inclination to follow the path of worship may be destined, but to walk on it or not is entirely in our hands, for all depends on how we regard this rare human birth as, a doorway to GOD Realisation or merely a mundane existence.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, One must consciously refrain from using "GOD's Wish", as an excuse for not doing the self effort, for GOD helps those who help themselves."
