Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 2867

When the members of a family pronounce His
name to each other, their forefathers, their
children, their property are purified. What was
declared of old—how can it pass on to the future?
He has anointed men with the unction of pure
identity. The royal canopy of emancipation
gleams on high for an emblem; the sky resounds
with unbroken acclamations. The Lord of Tuka
sets His servant on his own throne and celebrates
a festival of mutual love.
