कन्या पुत्रादिक बाळे I
हे तंव स्नेहाची स्नेहाळे II
तुझ्या दर्शनाहुन व्याकुळ I
अंती दूर राहिली II
देहगृहाची कामिनी I
ते तंव राहिली भवनी II
मी जळतसे स्मशानी I
अग्निसवे एकला II
मित्र आले गोत्रज आले I
तेंहि स्मशानी परतले II
शेवटी टाकोनिया गेले I
मज परता यमजाल II
ऐसा जाणोनि निर्धार I
मग मज आला गहिवर II
तंव दाही दिशा अंधकार I
मग मज काही न सुचे II
ऐसे जाणोनिया पाहि I
मनुष्य जन्म मागुता नाही I
नामा म्हणे तुझे पायी I
ठाव देई विठोबा II
संत नामदेव
It says ,
" Among the innumerable species of living beings humans can alone discriminate between right and wrong and eschew that which is not conducive for their well-being. Human beings have been gifted of an exclusive feature of realisation of their spiritual nature and the capacity to actualise this potential in this birth. In this composition Saint Namdev has underscored the fact that human birth should not be frittered away on materialistic pursuits. Saint Namdev says that the individual who has understood the purpose of his birth and has resorted to incessant recital of the Name of Supreme Lord Shri Ram has realised the fruit of his birth.
Human life in the world has been put forth metaphorically as a journey from the womb to the tomb. As no one can escape death , it is imperative that One has to make a conscious effort to put an end to the unending cycle of death and rebirths by realising the Divine in this birth itself.
Saint Namdev deeply regrets losing of precious time in this rarest of rare human birth , being enticed in the powerful clutches of worldly desires. He says ,
Our human birth is governed by intricate labyrinth of Causality or relation between cause and effect. It is not only actions, but also intentions and consequences associated with each action. This Causality unfolds on the backdrop of Maya , the Illusion.
The most certain inevitability of life is death. No one mourns the conclusion of a life. A man is born alone and dies alone and he experiencea the good and bad consequences of his deeds alone. One feels vulnerable when the death knocks on the door. Regardless of being loved by family and friends ,a man is all alone in his rendezvous with death. As the soul will depart, the body will wither and alone it will be swallowed by the flames. The friends and family will accompany the soulless body up to the crematorium but they are
well aware of who is dead and who is alive .And hence they will return back to their homes leaving the dead body all alone. Saint Namdev says ,the final scene of the end journey flashes in his mind thereby reflecting the trueness of fleeting and perishable life. This imagination itself is so shattering and it clouds his mind with utter vulnerability and frustration . And hence He implores his mind that this life on earth is a halting place on the way to achievement of the ultimate goal of life , the Self Realisation. The life is short and there are many obstacles to get over. Waste not precious time , but utilise every moment for the noblest of causes. This journey of Self Realisation unfolds when One surrenders to the Supreme Lord Vitthal with utmost reverence. as it is a sure path to the Eternal Bliss. "
