New words
Chant-say a prayer in a singing voice Till(v)-prepare and use land for growing crops Garment-dress Deliverance-final relase from rebirth Bead-a small round ball of wood
WORK IS WORSHIP
Leave this chanting and singing and telling of beads!Whom dost thou worship in this lonely dark corner of a temple with doors all shut? Open thine eyes and see thy God is not before thee
He is there the tiller is tilling the hard ground and where the path-maker
is breaking stones. He is with them in sun and shower,and his garment is covered with dust. Put off thy holy mantle and even like him come down on the dusty soil!
Deliverance? Where is this deliverance to be found? Our master himself has joyfully taken upon him the bonds of
creation; he is bound with us all forever. Come out of thy meditations and leave aside thy flowers and incense!
What harm is there if thy clothes become tattered and stained?Meet him and stand by him in toil and in sweat of thy brow.
THEME OF THE POEM
Karmayoga(socially productive and useful work)alone will help man achieve liberation from rebirth
Best line of the poem which I liked most
Put off the thy holy mantle and even like him come down on the dusty soil!
