Abide by Tukaram’ s abhangs

The Hindu  

Whenever adharma raises its head and wreaks havoc, there is divine course correction in the form of avatara purushas, who live among the ordinary people and raise their spiritual quotient. The Marathi saint, Sant Tukaram, who was born over 400 years ago was one such, said Sri Tukaram Ganapati Maharaj in a namasankeerthanam. Just as how one keeps one’s person and dwelling clean, so too should one cleanse one’s inner self with the kirtans of Tukaram. It is not enough if one plans for a successful material life, one should also examine the true purpose of life, an awareness that only the works of saints like Tukaram can provide. Tukaram always emphasised that while one should have the means to live, one should also lead a meaningful life, characterised by thoughts of the Supreme.
