Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –Chapter - 14 - Sabari Moksham - Lord Krishna's visit to Vidura's home
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Govinda, you
are too kind and compassionate to your devotees, you are the knower of all, you
are indebted to your devotees, you assume the form whatever desired by your
devotees. Oh! Prabho, your passionate devotee Sabari brought upper clothe full
of berries, and she had tasted each and every berry to test the sweetness of
it and offered to you the superior ones, you have gracefully accepted them.
Further, you have fondly remembered that incident as ‘you have not gotten the
opportunity to enjoy the same sweetness of the fruit that was offered by Sabari
in your whole life. Oh! Shyamasundhara, you have always been affectionate to
your devotees, you have visited the house of Vidhura, leaving the sumptuous
meal offered by Duryodhana. You have been received with great honor and
affection in the house of Vidura, and Vidurani who is a passionate devotee of you
offered a bunch of plantain fruits, she was so mesmerized to watch Shyamsundhar
in her home, offered the skin of plantain instead of banana, you did not hesitate
to eat the skin of banana which was fondly offered by Vidurani. Oh! Prabho, as
a part of Duryodhana’s plotting against the Pandavas who were already suffering
in the dense woods, Sage Dhurvass was requested to visit the Pandavas during
their exile from Hastinapura. Sage Durvass along with several thousands of disciples
arrived in the wood to meet the Pandavas, unfortunately, there was no meal available
to offer the Sage and his disciple. Devi Dhraupadhi called out for your help,
Oh! Shyamasundara, you have instantly appeared before her and consumed a tiny piece
of green from the bottom of ‘Akshayapathra’ which was already cleaned after the
consumption of the day’s meal, thus, you have made the Sage Durvass and his
disciple forget their hunger. Oh! Karunanidhi, you have never abandoned your
devotees in distress, you have always been there to protect your sincere
devotees in each Yuga.”
