Chapter – 28 - Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The various amusements of Lord Sri Krishna
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, I
have taken several births in different Yonis and was aimlessly drowning in the
ocean of Samsara/worldly existence. I have taken several births in water as
well as on the land, and I have been afar from the practice of devotion and
worship at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari and drenched in the worldly matters,
possession, richness, wealth, fame, money, children, companion, wife, relatives, etc. I have been swollen with pride, jealousy, ego, anger, lust, and desire,
and constantly hurled myself into extreme pain and suffering. Oh! Prabho, I
have committed several grave sins, you are my Master, you have protected Nriga,
Kapi, Sudhama Bhraman, Jatayu, Ganika/prostitute, Gajendra, Kamsa, and Keshi
like several sinners. Oh! Prabho, you have liberated Aghasura, Bakasura,
Vrishabasura, Poothana, Dhenukasura, Murasura, from the ocean of worldly
existence. You have killed the wicked demons Shankhachooda, Mushtika, Pralambasura,
and Thrinavarththa, elephant Kuvalayapeedam, Chanoora. Oh! Prabho, you have
swallowed the colossal wood fire and protected the cows and cowherds, you have
crushed the pride of the serpent Kaliya and protected the villagers from the
toxic poison of Kaliya. Oh! Prabho, Oh! Dhamodhara, you have fastened yourself
with the mortal pastel to liberate the sons of Kubera who were cursed to become
Yamalarjjuna tree by Maharishi Narada. Oh! Giridhari, you have rushed on your
feet to protect the Vraja, cows, and cowherds from the harassment of Indra who
caused heavy downpour, you have elevated Mount Govardhana on your little finger, crushed the pride of Indra and protected the Brajavasis. Oh! Prabho, when
Devi Draupadi was humiliated by Dusshasana in the large assembly of Kaurava,
she cried out for help, you have provided an abundance of clothes and protected
her from disgrace. Oh! Prabho, you have brought back the life of the child of
your preceptor as a Gurudhakshina and pleased him, what to say, you have liberated
the hunter who mistakenly shot an arrow on the thumb of your leg while you were
prepared to leave to Sri Vaikundam. Oh! Prabho, Oh! Bhayahari, you have released
Nandababa from the Varunapasha, I have already surrendered at your lotus feet,
kindly protect me.”
Yeisehi Janama Bahuth Bairayau | Bimukha
Bhayau Haricharanakamala Thaji Man Santhosh Na Aayau || Jab Jab Pragata Bhayau
Jala Thala Mei Thab Thab Bahu Bapu Dhare
| Kama Krodha Madha Lobha Mohabasa
Athihi Kiye Aghabhare || Nriga Kapi Bipra Gheedh Ganika Gaja Kamsa Kesi Khala Thare | Agha Baka Brishabha Baki
Dhenuka Hathi Bhava Jalanidhi Thai Ubare || Sankhachooda Mushtika Pralamba Aru
Thrinavarththa Samhare | Gaja Chanoora Hathe
Dhava Nasyau Byala Maththyau Bhayahare || Jana Dhukha Jani Jamadhruma
Bhanjana Athi Athura Hai Ghaye | Giri Kara Dhari Indhramadha Mardhyo Dhasani
Sukha Upajaye || Ripu Kacha Gahatha
Dhrupadha Thanaya Jab Sarana Sarana Kahi Bhashi | Badai Dhukoola Kot Ambara Lau
Sabha Manjja Pathi Rakhi || Mrithaka Jivayi Dhiye Guru Ke Sutha
Byadha Paramagathi Payi | Nandha Baruna Bandhana Bhayamochana Sur
Pathitha Saranayi ||
