Tukaram, Poem 1548

Those who hold no principle of duality in material things—let me have nothing to do with them! God is certainly diverse from them, He is detached from them and indifferent to them. Where men are fettered in the knot of desire, how can Brahma be realized? Tuka says, While they are in the body, they cannot be united with God.
