Abhanga 707
Once the divine truly settles in your heart, your restless searching ends and no fear, worry, or leftover anxiety remains.
The verse
सांटविला हरी । जींहीं हृदयमंदिरीं ॥१॥ त्यांची सरली वेरझार । जाला सफळ व्यापार ॥ध्रु.॥ हरी आला हाता । मग कैंची भय चिंता । तुका म्हणे हरी । कांहीं उरों नेदी उरी ॥३॥
Literal translation
Hari — sāṭavilā — those-who in the hṛdaya-mandira. Their vērajhāra — saralī — vyāpāra became sa-phaḷa. Hari came to hātā — then where bhaya-cintā? Tuka says: Hari — kāhīm urō nēdī urī.
मराठी: हृदय-मंदिरीं हरी सांटविला ज्यांनीं — त्यांची वेरझार सरली, व्यापार सफळ झाला. हरी हाता आला — मग कैंची भय-चिंता? — Tuka म्हणे: हरी कांहीं उरों नेदी उरी.

What it means
A Hari-stored-in-hṛdaya-mandira-toing-froing-over-no-fear-no-remainder abhang. Hari-in-heart register. Three claims:
-
हृदय-मंदिरीं हरी सांटविला — वेरझार सरली — व्यापार सफळ. Hari-stored-trade-fruitful-claim. Those who havesāṭavilā(stored, lodged) Hari in thehṛdaya-mandira(heart-temple); theirvērajhāra(toing-and-froing, restless-wandering) issaralī(ended); thevyāpāra(trade) has-becomesa-phaḷa(fruitful). Storing-Hari-in-heart-ends-the-restless-wandering-and-makes-the-trade-fruitful. (The vyāpāra image is from 0688-690 cluster: the bhakta as merchant — once the goods (Hari) are stored in the heart, the trade is complete.)
-
हरी हाता आला — कैंची भय-चिंता. Hari-in-hand-no-bhaya-cintā-claim. When Hari has-come to thehāta(hand) — then where (kaicī) thebhaya-cintā(fear-and-worry)?. Hari-in-hand-no-fear-no-worry.

For someone today
Those who have stored Hari in the temple of their heart find their restless wandering finally comes to an end — their life's trade has become fruitful. Once Hari is in hand, what room is left for fear or worry? Tukaram says Hari leaves nothing behind, no residue at all, for anxiety to feed on later.
मराठी: ज्यांनी हरीला आपल्या हृदय-मंदिरात साठवले आहे, त्यांची भटकंती संपते — त्यांचा जीवनरूपी व्यापार सफळ होतो. एकदा हरी हाती आला, की भय आणि चिंतेला जागाच उरत नाही. तुकाराम म्हणतात, हरी काहीच शिल्लक ठेवत नाही — पुढील चिंतेला खाद्य पुरवणारा कोणताही अवशेष उरत नाही.
Where this applies
- Hṛdaya-mandira—sāṭavilā Harī. Storage.
- In-hand — nobhaya-cintā. Possession.
- No-urī. No-residue.
