I decided to write thread on Bhakti poetry on #worldpoetryday2021 but couldn't find the perfect translation of the poems written by Saint Tukaram. Finally I found the perfect translation of his selective poems by Shri. Dilip Chitre.

So I'll start posting translation of the beautiful poems of Saint Tukaram on this auspicious day of #गुढीपाडवा Bahinabai Sioorkar, the younger contemporary of Saint Tukaram , has used perfect metaphor of a temple to describe the Varkari tradition of Bhakti.
She says that , Saint Dnyaneshwar laid its foundation , Namdeo built its walls , Eknath gave it a central pillar & Tukaram became its crown. Follow this thread & read his poems & you'll get to know why he is called as Crown of Varkari Sampraday..
