Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 170

We are born and go on our way; we eat the curds and rice of the world. Not so in Vaikuntha, there you get no mouthful of the world! We go on feeding each other, we rejoice in the whirl of existence. Tuka says, Excellent are the level sands of Pandharpura; what is humble is best!
