II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

काय मागावे कवणासी I
ज्यासी मागो तो मजपाशी II
जरी मागो पद इंद्राचे I
तरी शाश्वत नाही त्याचे II
जरी मागो ध्रुवपद I
तरी त्यासी येथील छंद II
स्वर्गभोग मागो पूर्ण I
पुण्य सारल्या मागुती येणे II
मागो जरी पद वैकुंठ I
ते तव एकदेशी करंटे II
आयुष्य मागो चिरंजीव I
जीवा मरण नाही स्वभावे II
तुका म्हणे एक मागे I
एकपणा नाही भंग II

"In this composition Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, GOD as Truth, has been for him a Treasure unparalleled, for the man who has GOD for his Treasure has all things in One, forever.
Illustrating with beautiful analogies he says, futile it is to ask for the throne of GOD Indra, which is not perpetual, for even an ordinary man can attain it.
Futile it is to ask for the position of Dhruva, who is placed high in the sky by Supreme GOD Vishnu as a Pole Star, to stay fixed in that position for a complete Kalpa or period of 4.32 billion solar years.
Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, to ask for Heavenly Abode is futile because it is lost as soon as One's accumulated virtues exhaust, which he needs to accumulate again to be back in Heaven.
He says, fruitless is to ask for the boon of immortality when it is the Eternal Truth that the soul is immortal.
Summing up Sant Tukaram Maharaj says, rather than aspiring to go to Vaikuntha, the Abode of Supreme  GOD Vishnu, he aspires to become One with the All Pervading Eternal that persists in all its splendour behind all the multiplicity of this manifold universe."
