Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 1086

What pleases us is death to the world. Others reject faith and live by appearances. They never heard what truly profits them; therefore they go drifting from door to door. They praise or blame according to fashion; they follow other people’s lead. Tuka says, They will not listen when they are taught, they go running to hell.
