Stones can be turned into heaps of gold, all
the trees of the forest into wishing-trees, but
the feet of Vitthoba remain beyond access, these
devices will not avail here. We may fill with
nectar the Ganges and the sea, we may bid time
to stop; past, present and future we may pene-
trate, Prosperity and Accomplishment we may
induce to favour us; postures, measures and atti-
tudes of yoga we may master, we may drive our
breath into our skulls, but even Liberation is less,
says Tuka, than Vitthoba’s feet, what are other
trifles compared with them?
