Chapter
– 140 -Sri Vinaya Pathrika – No creature
is free from fear, hunger, thirst, desire for physical relationship and sleep,
you have achieved the rarest birth as a human, which is difficult to attain
even for the deities, unfortunately, you have spent your whole life drenched in
Ahamkara and Mamakara
Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Jeeva,
what’s the benefit of the precious birth as a human, if it was not used for the welfare of others by words, mind, and deed? The Vishayijeeva get drenched in the
worldly matters of infinite Nama Roopa Dhrishya, attachment to wife, children,
relatives, companions, Ahamkara and Mamakara, lust, desire, ego, pride, jealousy
and anger, constantly undergoes grief and sorrows, ultimately shove themselves
to hell and Janana Marana, and the cycles of birth and death continues. Oh! Mind,
you have adopted various means to calm, but all those methods were pointless, even
after knowing the Paramarththa Thaththva/knowledge of Athman, all-pervasive
Bramham resides as a soul is indestructible Purusha and all the material
matters/Prakrithi has fleeting nature, Jeevathma is Paramathma, etc. you are not
willing to accept them. Oh! Jeeva, you have drenched in the darkness of
ignorance, have been chasing after material well-being and bodily pleasure, you
have followed your mind voice, seeking pleasure in Parasthree/strange women,
Paradhan/other’s wealth, and created enemies. Oh! Ignorant, you have suffered a
lot/Garbhavasadhukha while you were in the womb of your mother, you have
undergone hellish torture in the tiny dark space in the mother’s womb, hanging
upside down the head on the excreta piled up on the worms. Alas! you have
forgotten all those painful days in your life, preparing yourself to thrown into the Garbhavasudhukha once again, by committing various sins. Oh! Jeeva, none is free from fear, hunger, thirst, desire for physical
relationship and sleep, you have achieved the rarest birth as a human, which is
difficult to attain even for the deities, unfortunately, you have spent the whole
life drenched in Ahamkara, Mamakara, lust, desire, ego, pride, anger and
jealousy, you haven’t taken shelter at the lotus feet of the
Sacchidhanandharoopa Paramathma Parambhramam resides as a soul in you, in this
way, you have ruined the most precious birth achieved after several merits of previous births. Oh! Jeeva, we haven’t taken shelter at the lotus feet of
Lord Sri Ramachandra, we didn’t get rid of Dhvandhabhava/dualities of respect
and disrespect, sorrow, and happiness, grief, and joy, etc. did not achieve the serenity of mind, and redundant thoughts, due to impurities of Kama, Krodha,
Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Mathshcharya, Ahamkara and Mamakara. Oh! Tulsidas, what
is the use of being apologetic after losing the precious birth as a human? Hence,
practice devotion and sing in praise of Supreme Lord, and recite the Ramanama and
make your life fruitful.”
