II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

भोगावरी आम्ही घातला पाषाण I

मरणा मरण आणियेलें II

विश्व तू व्यापक काय मी निराळा I

काशासाठी बळा येऊं आतां II

काय सारुनिया काढावे बाहेरी I

आणुनी भीतरी काय ठेवू II

केला तरी उरे वादचि कोरडा I

बळे घ्यावी पीडा स्वपनिंची हे II

अवघेचि वाण आले तुम्हां घरा I

मजुरी मजुरा रोजकीर्दी II

तुका म्हणे कांही नेणें लाभ हानी I

असेल तो धनी राखी वाडा II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, the realisation that the 'True Me' is separate from body, senses and their gratification and the root cause of all sufferings is "This body is the real me" idea, has annihilated the repeated sufferings once and for all.

He says, If only You O' Lord is here, there, and everywhere, within this, that, and everything then how can I be separate from You ?

He says, if inside out is You and You only O' Lord then it is futile to say that I bring something in or drag something out of me.

He says, perpetual happiness is impossible from "This body is the true me" idea which in itself is an illusion or That Which Is Not.

He says, 'Punchkoshas' are the five layers of the body that seemingly cover the True Self or Consciousness. This rare human birth, by divine grace, is meant to strive to comprehend the Supreme Indweller residing within these layers. It is up to us to what we give importance to, the ignorance of "This body is the true me" idea or making use of this precious human birth to attain GOD Realisation, the crowning fruition of all endeavors."
