 II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II


वरी बोला रस I

कधी ज्ञान माजी फोस II

ऐसे लटीके जे ठक I

तया इह ना परलोक II

परिसे एक सांगे I

अंगा धुळी हे नलगे II

तुका म्हणे हाडे I

कुतऱ्या लाविले झगडे II


"Empty vessels make the most noise" In other words those who know the least often speak the most, speak the loudest, and create the most fuss, thereby making their presence felt most. 

In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj comments on those who talk the talk but do not walk the walk. In other words they do not act in a way that agrees with the things they say.

He says, the quest of happiness for those who speak great swelling words of emptiness never ends.

Illustrating with beautiful analogy he says, people with the least knowledge are the most outspoken is just like dogs quareling for a juiceless raw bone.

Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, rare is the One who Walks His Talk on his Self Quest, consciously avoiding the trumpet call to self importance."


II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
