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.”
