Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 3659

They manage their affairs with great self-importance; they do not realize that people see their failings. Their sanctity, the members of their own household perceive; out-of-doors, they censure those who have truly renounced the world. They cannot see their own shortcomings; but they enlarge on the demerits of men they meet.
Mankind are fast bound by love of sensual pleasures; thus they are entangled in birth and death. Tuka says, My own past has endowed me with a nature that is mad after God.
