Tukaram, Poem 68

This is not my own speech, it all comes from Vitthala. Cease all anxious pining, and cling to what will bring you profit. The spirit of self is a false guide; I have given it up in spite of men’s remonstrances. Every one will recognize what is best for himself, says Tuka; I am only a measure to portion it out.
