II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II
दुधाचे घागरी मद्याचा हा बंद I
पडिलिया शुद्ध नव्हे मग II
तैसे खळां मुखे न करावे श्रवण I
अहंकारे मन विटाळले II
काय करावी ती बत्तीस लक्षणे I
नाक नाही तेणे वाया गेली II
तुका म्हणे अन्न जिरो नेदी माशी I
आपुलिया जैशी संसर्गे II
"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj elucidates with meaningful analogies how vainly it is to hear a slave of senses talking about GOD Realisation.
He says, just like even a drop of liquor is enough to spoil a potful of milk, futile is to hear an egotist talking about devotion, wisdom and renunciation.
He says, just like the beauty is not perfect even if one of the thirty two parameters set for gauging physical attractiveness doesn't meet the standard, similarly for words of wisdom to reach the hearts of listeners, the exponent must have a perfect confluence of selfless devotion and renunciation.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, just like a fly on food makes it unhealthy to eat, utterly futile is to follow the words of a slave of senses as words of Wisdom."
