Tukaram Gatha Abhanga 585 - Chitta gvaahee tethe

 Marathi Text

चित्त ग्वाही तेथें लौकिकाचें काई । स्वहित तें ठायीं आपणापें ॥१॥
मनासी विचार तोचि साच भाव । व्यापक हा देव अंतर्बाहीं ॥२॥
शुद्ध भावा न लगे सुचावा परिहार । उमटे साचार आणिके ठायीं ॥३॥
भोगित्यासी काज अंतरीचें गोड । बाहिरल्या चाड नाहीं रंगें ॥४॥
तुका म्हणे भाव शुद्ध हें कारण । भाट नारायण होईल त्यांचा ॥५॥
Roman Script
1. Chitta gvaahee tethe loukikaache kaai, swaheet te thaayee aapanaape
2. Manaasee vichaar tochi saach bhaav, vyaapak ha dev antarbaahee
3. Shudhha bhaava na lage suchaava parihaar, umate saachaar aanike thaayi
4. Bhogityaasee kaaj aantareeche goad, baahiralya chaad naahee range
5. Tuka mhane bhaav shuddh he kaaran, bhaat Naaraayan hoyil tyaancha.
Translation
1. When the mind becomes only a witness to the happening around him, then where is the entanglement in materialistic things? (He will not get stuck in worldly matters). We have to take care of our self-interest.
2. When the mind has developed a conviction that God is encompassing everything in the Universe, then that should be considered as the correct feeling.
3. When our feelings are genuine and unadulterated, we don't have to announce that. It is understood by others automatically.
4. For the man who is engaged in enjoying the experience of God Realization, he is concerned only with the internal sweetness he has no interest in other external matters.
5. Tuka says, the pure devotion inside the heart is the truly responsible factor in our reaching God. God himself will sing praises for the person who is pure at heart.
