एक तेज, ओढ तन आया था-
पथ आलोकित कर चला गया॥ धृ॥
नहीं चमक दमक; नहीं तडक भडक।
पर ब्रह्म तेज की, सौम्य झलक॥
नहीं दाम याचना, नाम चाहना,।
अहम्, दंभ; आडम्बर हीना॥
सरल निर्मल, तिलक तिल तिल।
जीवन देकर चला गया ॥
एक तेज ओढ…….॥१॥
तरूवर सभीपर, छाया धरते।
नदी दूजों की, प्यास बुझाती॥
नगर ग्राम, गिरि देश देश,।
धूप वर्षा, बर्फ फिकर ना लेश॥
गैरिक प्रतिभा, सदैव घुमती।
गरिमा मंडित, नग्न चरण परिव्राज,।
ज्ञान की गागर, लुटाकर चला गया॥
एक तेज ओढ तन ………….॥२॥
कैसी वंशी, बजाई तुमने–
मोह लिया, मोहन-सा जैसे,
अभी तलक, बजती है ताने,
उन स्मृतियों की, भूलें कैसे?
आलोक राह के, अधिकारी तुम,
पहिचान न पाए, कैसे?
भारत माँ के भाग्य भालपर,
“तिलक” लगाकर चला गया॥
एक तेज ओढ तन……..॥३॥
यह अंधेर नगरी दुनिया है।
तम का सारा राज, तम ही है,
षड् रिपुओं से, जकडे कहते।
ऊंचे स्वर से, ज्ञानी हम ही है।
कृपा चाहिए, परम पिता की,
तब कोई, ज्ञानी को पहिचाने॥
कितने सरल, अहं रहित तुम-
कि ठगे गये, चालाक-
सरल हृदय, पहिचान ज्ञानी को,
हो गए मूक अवाक,
जितेन्द्रीय “बजरंग शिष्य” था मुक्त पवन,
सौरभ फैलाकर. चला गया॥
एक तेज ओढ तन……..॥।४॥

Our dear Sanmananiy Dr. Madhubhai ji:
Saprem Namaskar:
We are overwhelmed with serine feelings by reading your poem etc…which created great joy in our heart!!!
Your poem is supreme!!!!
Respected late Swami ji Tilak ji stayed in our house in SC for a week. So we know what you are saying/describing/talking about him…….It touches our heart..
We have similar feelings about out Great Swamiji..like you..
It gave us really an opportunity to do punya kama by serving humbly to such a divine Swami ji… for a week…We were extremely delighted as he stayed with us. GREAT GREAT SATSANG!!! (One disciple was with him too)
He wanted to cook his meals by his own hands. But somehow, I/we could convince him that, I will cook for him. To our surprise, (we were pleased), as he agreed. to our request……..
Chandrashekhar–our son– was giving all of us car rides though we both can/could drive…you know… He was so impressed with Poojya Swami ji & his disciple, that he was ready to go with them for good….. He was in 10th grade that time…..
We arranged Swami ji’s many discourses to several places. in SC & NC.
In our college too.There–.more that 500 came for the lecture. They not only were highly impressed with his lecture but, were wonderfully amazed to see his all attare.. no shoes etc It was winter in SC
When he arrived in Columbia, S.C. airport, from there, he went to our Columbia temple. He was to give lecture thare…Unfortunately, there was snowfall in SC, You know, it is very very rarely that snowfall will be there in SC. As you described, no shoes, only dhoti kafni shawl…..he walked bear footed on the snow from parking lot to the temple..on shoes..He did not feel cold. We were loaded with long coats, scarfs etc,
We have pictures of many saints, placed in one of our guest rooms. Swami ji Tilak ji’s is prominently in there..
To establish Hindu university in USA…was his dream. It is a great joy that his dream is now realised…
With Best wishes to all
Yours affly,
Savitaben/Prabhakar
