Tukaram, Poem 2296

If we search strictly, we find this place is hard to approach; thus my soul is deeply troubled. I have left the world for a place where there is none besides Thee. If a man retreats into himself he will gain nothing to his heart’s content; what avails it to leave any difference between me and Thee? Thou hast fulfilled my desires, says Tuka; nothing intrudes between me and Thee.
