Lack of devotion manifests, the follower of dharma a in a conceit.
In one of the verse,
1) Study of Vedas
2) Sacrifice (Yadnay)
3) Donation
4) A strong resolve
are the means to reach the supreme power.
You sacrificed sesame and rice grains in the holy fire
likewise let all the vices turn to ashes.
You haven't yet started chanting his name, so you are
exhausted.
Until now, you have used words for pride, conceit
and to fulfill your daily needs.( and you haven't used words for chanting)
You have fulfilled all the rituals, while on a pilgrimage.
But your intent was to earn respect.
You have donated the wealth, but you have procreated your ego.
Tuka says, you might have been highly ceremonial but lack of devotion
could be the chink in your armor.
Above is the literal translation of the first verse by Saint Tukaram...
