Chapter – 15 - Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –Sharanagathi
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, you
have protected the devotees who have surrendered at your feet, you have
liberated them from the Thapathraya/the three kinds of sufferings such as 1) grief
of aging, illness, fear of death, the grief of separation – Adhyathmik, 2) grief of
natural calamities, flood, famine, drought, epidemic, etc – Adhidheivik, and 3)
grief from the loss of fame, wealth, richness, possession, children, wife,
companion, relatives – Adhibhauthik. Oh!
Prabho, whenever your devotees mounted with troubles, you have been there to
protect them with your powerful weapon disc/Sudharshana. You have protected
King Ambareesha from the wrath of Sage Durvass and crushed the pride of Sage.
Oh! Prabho, you have protected the people of Vraja from the wrath of Lord
Indra, who got annoyed in the worship of Mount Govardhana and flooded the
Vraja with a heavy downpour. You have elevated Mount Govardhan on your little
finger and protected the entire Vraja, cowherds, and cows, thus huge destruction
was skillfully tackled. Oh! Prabho, your child devotee Prahladha suffered lots
of trouble from his father demon King Hiranyakashipu, at a certain point,
Prabhaldha wished for your presence in the pillar to prove your existence as
omnipresent, instantly you have split opened the pillar and appeared before him
in the form of Nrisimha, further you have ripped off the chest of
Hiranyakashipu with your sharp fingernails. Oh! Prabho, Gajaraj/Gajendhra who
was caught on the leg by a crocodile in the pond was dragged to the bottom, he
cried out for help remembering Lord Sri Hari was instantly got relieved from the
suffering. Oh! Shyamsundhara, you have removed the sufferings of the people of
Mathura by killing Kamsa in a battle/Rangabhoomi. Oh! Krishna, Oh!
Bhaktharakshana, you are the only one to protect the distressed soul who is
surrendered at your lotus feet.”
