Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 3455

Let us store up virtues; let us not walk on any
other path. Men crave various pleasures;
they enter devious tracts and weary themselves.
We, however, have the gathering of the saints
appointed us to join. Tuka says, I look with
astonishment on the way mankind amuse themselves.
