Tukaram, Poem 2713

We will speak now even where we ought to be silent, in words for all mankind to hear at once. The shower considers not the place where it falls; men shall profit according to their faith. Tuka says, We do not care to make men contented, for that would injure both ourselves and those who come after us.
