Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 844

We are amazed about our undue passion for the world—how have You led us to believe it is genuine? This faith of ours is inconceivable to others: we must make our own souls witnesses of it. We see the many in the one and the one in the many; each receives his assurance from his own inclination.
Tuka says, You know how to create this belief and dispel it; You are skilled in this matter, O God!
