नाशिवंत देह नाशिवंत माया । नाशिवंत छाया वायां जैशी ॥
मृगजळाचे परी नाशिवंत धन । यासी तू भूलून गुंतलासी ॥
व्यापारी बाजारी घातले दुकान । स्त्री-पुत्र स्वजन तैसे बापा ॥
एका जनार्दनी ऐशियाच्या छंदा । भुलोनी गोविंदा विसरसी ॥
Body is temporary, material existence and its illusions (Maya) are temporary, just as temporary shadow is waste, all these things are of no use.
Money is temporary like a mirage in the desert, and due to its attraction you've entangled yourself.
Just as a business men (shop owners) open their shop in the market, similar is the position of wife, children, relatives and friends (Probably to mean that we are like a shop owners, shop is not our home, we are part and parcels of God, so real home is to go back to God. And one's wife/children/friends etc are just like objects in the shop to which he/she gets attached).
Sant Eknath says, you got involved with all these things and for this you've forgotten Krishna.

संतमहिमा
संतवचने देव जोडे । सायुज्य मुक्ति पाया पडे । संतवचने सांकडे । नुरेचि कांही ॥
धन्य धन्य संतसंग । उभा तेथे श्रीरंग । लक्ष्मीसहित अभंग । तिष्ठे सदा ॥
संतवचने कर्म झडे । संतवचने मोक्ष जोडे । संतवचनी तीर्थ घडे । धन्य संग संतांचा ॥
संतवचने तुटे उपाधि । संतवचने सरे आधिव्याधी । संतवचने भवनदी । प्राणी तरती ॥
संतवचनी धरा भाव । तेणे सर्व निरसे भेव । एकाजनार्दनी देव । प्रत्यक्ष भेटे ॥
If we follow teachings of the Saints we reach God, salvation bows to us and all problems/puzzles are solved.
Association of Saints is very very important/benedictory, God(Narayan) Himself is always standing with Lakshmi, when we are in association of Saints.
If we follow teachings of the Saints, we get relieved from results of our previous Karmas. We get salvation by following their teachings and also we get benefits of going to Holy places (places of pilgrimage). Really great is the benefit of association of saints.
Following teachings of Saints, we get rid of our false ego and all other diseases of mind. Living entities who follow their teaching can cross this ocean of Maya.
Have faith in the teachings of the Saints, it will cure us of all the fears and EkaJanardani (Sant Eknath, disciple of Janardan Swami) says, we will meet God personally.
So let us start studying teachings of Sant Eknath. May we all meet God face to face !
