Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 232

A primal form is beyond mind or speech; so devotion has been invented to measure thee withal. With the measure of devotion I count out the infinite One, for verily there is no other way to do it. By sacrifice and austerity and union through the body, by recourse to contemplation, thou canst be found. Tuka says, Accept, O Kesava, as we offer it, the service we lay before Thee in simple faith.
