Chapter – 31 -  Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The glories of Lord Krishna


Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Govinda, you are the protector of the distressed souls, you are the closest companion of them. Oh! Prabho, Gajendra, Devi Dhraupadhi, the people of Vraja and Prahaldha got relieved from the grief immediately after remembering you. Oh! Prabho, you have protected the Pandavas from the Lakshagriha that was set to fire as a part of the plotting of Duryodhana, you have saved the Pandavas from the disgrace and curse of Sage Dhurvassa who visited the Pandavas during their life in the woods. You have consumed a tiny green leaf from the ‘Akshayapathra’ offered by Devi Dhraupadhi and removed the hunger of Sage Dhurvassa and thousands of his disciples. Oh! Prabho, you have saved King  Ambareesh from the curse of Sage Dhurvasa, later he had to apologize to the King due to the fear of your fierce disc that chased the Sage to the three worlds. Oh! Prabho, you have protected the vow of the daughter of King Bhishmak. Devi Rukmini was firm in her decision to marry none other than Lord Sri Krishna. Oh! Sripathi Oh! Sri Krishnachandra, you have rushed to Kundinapur to protect the vow Devi Rukmini, while everyone was witnessing you have effortlessly taken Devi Rukmini on your hands and safely deposited on your chariot and drove away from the crowd, whoever followed you and invited for the fight got their egos crushed. Oh! Prabho, you have released all those crores of kings capable to form a huge army who were imprisoned by Jarasandha. Oh! Prabho, you have always kept your promise alive to your devotees, the war of Kurukshetra was exemplary proof of your promise to your devotees. Oh! Prabho, your childhood friend Sudhama who was penniless visited you in Dwaraka was received with great honor, you have taken away the bundle of ragged clothe containing puffed rice from him, although he was not willing to give you. Oh! Krishnachandra, you always chase after your ardent devotees, and grieve over their separation, in the same manner, you don’t let the wicked demons get on with their atrocities. Oh! Sri Hari, your lotus feet are capable to remove the Thapathraya/three kinds of grief and sufferings of worldly existence, hence whoever surrenders at your feet would get relieved from the sufferings of Samsara. Oh! Dheenadhayala, you have incarnated on the Earth whenever the righteousness got tarnished and the Mother Earth was burned with the wicked and deceitful people. Oh! Prabho, you have assumed various forms for the welfare of noble souls, Veda highly eulogizes your endless glories. Oh! Prabho, even after listening to the endless glories of Lord Sri Hari, the unfortunate Jeevas are the ones who discard the devotion and worship at your lotus feet and seek the grace of demigods of their choice.”
