Sri Surdas Maharaj – Sri Sur – Vinaya – Pathrika – Bhagavath Prapthi/The attainment of perpetual bliss

 


Chapter – 41 -  Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – Bhagavath Prapthi/The attainment of perpetual bliss

 

Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, your splendor is beyond description, the illustrious Rishis, Sages, and Kings have sung in praise of your glories in abundance, hence the people and their Kingdoms flourished with richness and devotion. Their intense devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari chased away the thieves like the impurities of mind such as Kama/lust, Krodha/Anger, Moha/desire, Lobha/ego, Bhaya/fear, Ahamkara/pride, jealousy, etc. and they have enriched with wisdom, knowledge. The Kings ruled their Kingdom wisely, and the people lived in utmost bliss, they remain protected with the grace of the Lord. The illustrious Rishis, Sages, and the Kings devoted to the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari remained in a state of ecstasy after consuming the nectar-like bliss, and they had pure wisdom/Paramarththa Thaththva/absolute truth, as their minister. The Arththa /wealth and Kama/desire stood as the doorkeeper of the King waiting for his call, and the Dharma/righteous and Moksha/renunciation stood their heads bowed before the King.  The Chithth/mind and intellect are the two gatekeepers that stood wide-awake always, hence these four Purusharththa did not make an attempt to get closer to them. The eight kinds of supernatural powers/Ashtasidhdhis stood with folded hands on the gate of these illustrious Rishis, Sages, and Kings, but the Vairagya/abandonment like the armed guard shut the doors towards those Ashtasidhdhis. Oh! Mortal, whoever devoted at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari would not get shackled by Maya/illusion or Time, hence practice devotion and pure love at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari which is the ultimate source of Bhagavathprapthi/attainment of eternal bliss.”
