Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 221

You have created amusing games to soothe
your eyes with watching them; apart from
that end, we all know what the world is—a wooden
tiger and a wooden cow! There is unity at the
bottom, but he has set an amusement afoot; he has
made one light into many. Tuka says, There is no
real form in the mirror, the reflection serves as an
amusement.
