Tukaram, Poem 3231

Being iron, cotton, and wool together, then fire leaps out when a blow is struck.
Experience will enlighten the mind in its own season.
Food brings the experience of satisfied hunger; let us set our desires on it, for this is the measure to take.
Tuka says, When soul mingles with soul, then who can apply a name and when?
