Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 3333

When contentment is part of the mind’s own
nature, the mind is at peace; it can never
turn back again to the world. Scrutinize articles
to see if they are genuine, and you will be safe
against loss. The false article can be distinguished
in lustre; it is far from the true. Tuka says, I
prefer the true; so I am not in a hurry to make my
choice.
