Tukaram
Ordinary Life as Prayer
A Tukaram-inspired abhang page on daily life becoming the place of devotion.
Why return to it: Tukaram’s honesty makes devotion practical: not escape from the day, but truthfulness inside it.
Included here: Source-safe original/transliteration where appropriate and a poetic English rendering.
Original / source note
Source note: This is a thematic, source-safe rendering inspired by Tukaram’s abhang world.
English transliteration
Ghar, kām, thakān — yethūn bhaktī surū hote.
Poetic English rendering
Household, work, fatigue — devotion begins here too. The saint does not need a distant mountain when the ordinary day has already become a teacher.
