Tukaram, Poem 2636

Better be an ant and live on sugar; you will be free to find what you really want; when sugar has been spilt on sand, an elephant may come and see it, but he can only weep over it. There are preachers and ascetics whose acts are all deceitful, they learn texts by heart, and recite them to allure mankind. They make a great show with their tricks; the honour they receive is such as issues from themselves. Tuka says, Better be a small man and find that which really concerns you.
