Comments about Sant Tukaram
Smaller Than The Smallest Atom
Smaller than the smallest atom,
All embracing as the heavens,
Tuka views the world objective -
Name and form as all delusion -
Realising its true nature
Serpent like, he drops his cover,
Far is left the triple range,
Which the soul has just passed o'er
Light the jar of dull clay brightens!
Shining in that light doth Tuka
Live on earth to serve the mankind.
Poem hunter, you have given such a great information, their some corrections that, being a devotee of Tukaram Maharaj i want to tell you that, Tukaram Maharaj was not a sudras, he belongs to family name " More" , which means " Maratha" . Remove " sudras" & Make it their " Maratha" . You can also the expertese.

Nice peom
He was a lover of God, no less than any saint - beyond religions.
He knew who resided in the soul of all living creatures.
