Tukaram, Poem 1195

Those who give or take money for singing God’s praises go to dwell in the lowest pit of hell. They suffer the tortures of Rava, Rava and Kumbhpaka; Narayana takes no pity on them. There they cut them up with swords and roll them on the hot ground. Tuka says, They shall not escape hell; they are caught in the grip of Yama.
