Tukaram, Poem 732

We should destroy time by contemplation, dwell alone and bathe in Ganges water; worship God and walk round the tulsi; control ourselves in eating and pleasures and master the organs of sense. We should avoid slothful sleep and excessive talk; we should make the Supreme Spirit our treasure, and the feet of God our possession. These are the means to procure true gain; we should offer our body to God and take no burden on ourselves. Tuka says, This will bring us perfect joy.
