Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 3446

Sin means persistent attachment to the world;
the Yogi must give up all desires. When
such a treasure is so easy to come by, why do you
waste words? What is there you may not compass,
when you have the means to it in the mind itself?
Take this comfortable path, says Tuka, and break
the head of desire.
