1. Tuccha dise dhana daulata sari Vyartha bawachi hay
2. Nama smarana dhyata rahave Patala hachi upay
3. Satsangati vina para milena Mana he tethechi zay
4. Tukadyadasa mhane ya watsuni Nahi kunala thay
I adore Gurumayi * with all my heat.
1. It seems worthless to spend one's life in pursuit of money and all kinds of wealth. Even dwelling on the mind's troubles and feelings is a waste of time.
2. How much better it is to keep remembering God's Name and to remain immersed in it. I am convinced that this is the only remedy.
3. Without the company of saints, there is no way a person can cross over the ocean of worldliness. This is why my mind is so drawn to them.
4. Tukadyadas is convinced of one thing: That without meeting the Guru, there is no hope for anyone.
- Tukadyadas.
* Gurumayi is a Marathi term of respect and endearment meaning "one who is immersed in the Guru." Swami Chidvilasananda, head of the Siddha lineage, is often addressed as Gurumayi.
