Instead, he should look within himself and realize his own shortcomings. Tukaram, in a spirit of humility and surrender, prays to the Lord to accept him despite his many faults: Why should I judge other's merits or faults; Am I in any way free from them? Why should I assess others' virtue and vice; In what way are my acts different from theirs? why should I dwell on others' malice and rancour; I have even more of those failing in me. There is none as deceitful and lax as I; I have yet to see such a one with my own eyes. I have vices in abundance, says Tuka, Yet I surrender my heart at Thy feet, O Lord.
