Worldly life and life with the highest - he who acts both parts together, in the end he achieves neither. If a man seeks to lay his hands on two grain-pits at once, he will end by destroying himself (Abhang 3465). - Page 240
... spiritual experiences. Translated by J. Nelson Fraser and KB Marathe. I obey your injunctions, nevertheless I am greatly afraid of you. So I make your feet my familiar friends; I do not ask to sit beside you. With folded hands, I stand waiting before you. Tuka says, O ye saints, I am a sinful man. This was the original step that averted my pangs; I presented my body at your feet; I was set free from toil and redeemed. Now I shall not suffer my own authority to guide me. Tuka stands apart from... - Page 13
... after thee, when thou wast lonely and unembodied ? It is the darkness that makes the light shine, the setting that gives lustre to the gem. Disease brought to light Dhanvantari ; why should a healthy man wish to know him ? It is poison that confers its value on nectar ; gold and brass are high or low compared with each other. Tuka says, know this, O God, that because we exist, Godhead has been conferred on you. - Page 87
AHE body given us by God is excellent for his service ; yet it has become a field fruitful in error and confusion. When a man stiffens and straightens his neck through self-conceit, there is no bending it. Such a man cannot frame his tongue to call himself a servant of God, but he opens wide his throat for wanton speech. Tuka says, Where shall I... - Page 231
That we fall into sin is thy good fortune ; we have bestowed name and form on thee ; had it not been we who would have asked after thee, when thou wast lonely and unembodied. It is the darkness that makes light shine, the setting that gives lustre to the gem. - Page 87
A child may be unkind to his mother, yet she still loves him. Forgetting that she is weary, she lifts him to her lap and presses his body against hers. She weeps at his distress and is ever ready to give up her life for him. She jumps up when he calls her name ; she fling's away her life, says Tuka. - Page 86
More than the other vdrkari singers, he referred frequently to his own spiritual experiences. Translated by J. Nelson Fraser and KB Marathe. I obey your injunctions, nevertheless I am greatly afraid of you. So I make your feet my familiar friends; I do not ask to sit beside you. With folded hands, I stand waiting before you.

Panduranga ! 2738 shall speak with a view to being useful, as opportunity arises, according to the case. We shall lay the foundations deep and build a wall that will not sink, wherein God is first, midmost, and last. What we have to do, we shall do at once ; if we rely on the future, the growth of the present will be stunted. Tuka says, We shall obey his orders ; we shall carry them out at a singlestroke. - Page 27
The saints cannot bear to see another hurt ; it is a sort 3477 of pain to themselves ; they feel that the soul in all creatures is the same. Tuka says, This is the law of morality ; this is what is meant by worship; it keeps the soul at peace. - Page 245
I am not in a hurry to make my choice. 3334 shell of the cocoanut is hard, but the inside is excellent. In accordance with this, remember, that purity inside is what we aim at. The jack-fruit has a thorny rind, but it is sweet within. The sugar-cane is hard and black without, but it is well-flavoured within. Our food owes its flavour to salt. Tuka says, The value of a thing depends 3333 on its inner qualities; what do its faults outside matter? - Page 197
