A Perfect Devotee

One who has purged himself of ego
  Is like a wish-granting gem.
He slanders nobody, hurts nobody,
  Thinks ill of nobody –
  His mind is as clear as crystal.
He need not go to holy places
  For he is the holiest place of all.
The world comes to him,
  And the sight of him gives deliverance.
Does one whose mind is pure
  Need beads or any outward adornments?
He sings forever in praise of the Lord
  So that his mind is filled with happiness.
He has given his body, mind and wealth
  To the Lord and has no desires left.
Such a one is more precious
  Than the philosopher’s stone, says Tuka.
How can his greatness be described?
