Sri Vinaya Patrika – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – The terrible consequences of impurities of mind such as Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Mathshcharya.

 


Chapter -53 -Sri Vinaya Patrika  - The terrible consequences of impurities of mind such as Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Mathshcharya.


Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “The Moodamathi/ignorant Jeeva abandons the Sreerama Bhakthiroopi Ganga and quenching thirst with the drops of the impure water, like the Papeeha misunderstands the fog as clouds, and rushes to it, alas! does not get the coolness or waterdrops from it, only gets annoyed with the blurring vision, and this is how the interest in worldly matters, Body and I consciousness prompts the ignorant Jeeva chases after the material welfare, possession, wealth, money, fame, richness, the pleasure from the family, children, relatives, and companions, etc. within a short period of time, get dejected and weep over it, without knowing the eternal truth that the material things, bodily pleasure, and attachment to people and material matters cannot bring permanent happiness. The attachment to the body that undergoes constant transformation, aging, illness, and finally death, is the same as the material matters of impermanent nature, like the birds seeing the mirror image on the broken glass pieces get attracted to it, and nibble with its beak and gets badly wounded. The ignorant Jeeva drenched in the interest in worldly matters and bondage, body and I consciousness, impurities of mind cause the same damage as the bird's nibble on its mirror image on the broken glass pieces. Oh! Kripanidhi, how long I would describe the foolishness of the ignorant Jeeva? Oh! Bhagavan, you are the knower of all, Oh! Swamin, I am Tulsidas have taken shelter at your lotus feet, kindly protects me, Oh! Sharanagathvathsala kindly protects this Jeevathma.”

 

Sri Tulsidas Maharaj continues “Oh! Prabho, you have named us ‘Jeeva’, that dancing day and night to the tune of Maya, Oh! Hare, it hasn’t been firm for not a second, the Jeeva dressed up in the Shadguna of Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Madha, Moha, Mathshcharyaroopi attire, have taken several births of Jada and Chethana Vasthu, in the Jala, Akasha, Vayu, Prithvi, and I have spread hands before the   Dhaithya, Devatha, Muni, Naga, Manushya, etc. for favor. Unfortunately, none of them were capable to remove the sufferings and grief of poverty or sins, and I am completely exhausted, my loveliness, eyes, hands, legs, strength, and intellect everything left me helpless, none of my limbs are co-operating with me. Oh! Raghunath, I am worn out of fears and anxieties of Samsara I have taken shelter at your lotus feet, Oh! Nath, I have forgotten all those virtues you have loved in the Jeeva, I am helpless to please you. Oh! Prabho, kindly let your slave Tulsidas stay at your doorsteps.”
