Tukaram, Poem 624

I sit still and think upon Him; he who gives food and clothes will give thee all. Why need we accumulate any further store, when God is our debtor and supplies all our needs? He is loving and pitiful; he knows how to return his petitioner’s endearments. We need not tell Him our desires; he knows and gives us what we want. Tuka says, Put His ornaments on your person; you will become yourself Vitthala in the world.
