Chapter – 66 - Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The unconquerable
Maya/illusion
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Madhav, your
Maya/illusion is so powerful, kindly stop the Mayaroopi cow of yours, it chasing
me through the dirty as well as good paths, she is driving me insane, chasing
me day and night. I am not getting satisfied with the material pleasure or physical
pleasure; hence I remain hungry always, my desire is endless, I have already cut
off the Vedaroopi tree that represents beliefs, culture, rites, virtues, etc. I
have no culture, virtues, or values inherited in me because I have completely
lost knowledge of the Veda and scriptures. Oh! Prabho, even after reading eighteen
Puranas/Upapuranas, etc. like eighteen vessels of water did not quench my thirst,
Oh! Prabho, I have not taken pleasure in the Shatshasthras/six Shastras, alas!
I did not get appeased of six types of tastes, Oh! Prabho, I have performed
various sinful deeds by word, action, and thought, I cannot describe them in
words. Oh! Prabho, I have taken several births in air, sky, water, and Earth, and
in various Yonis/womb, I have taken immense pleasure in infinite Nama, Roopa,
Rasa, Sparsha, Shabdha, and Gandha, still, my thirst has not removed. The Thamogunaroopi black colored Bison/Thamasik
have beautiful horn/Sathvik, red eyes/Rajasik, gets attracted to all, but it is
capable to create hollow on the fourteen worlds with its horn. Oh! Prabho, your
Maya is unconquerable, the whole Universe and its living and non-living things
are under the clutches of your Maya. Oh! Prabho, your Thrigunamayi Maya has taken
complete control of the Jeeva, it is merciless, she does not even leave the
deities, and King Bali, she has taken control of the Universe and its living and
non-living things forcefully, the illustrious Sages, Rishis, could not even
protect themselves from your powerful Maya, Oh! Prabho, Oh! Kripanidhan I am
helpless, born blind by birth, how can I win over your Maya/illusion?”
Madhau Neku Itakau Gayi | Bhramatha Nisi
Basara Apathapatha Agaha Gahi Nahi Jayi || Chudhitha Athi Na Aghathi Kabahu Nigamadhruma Dhali Khayi |
Ashtadhasa Ghata Neer Anchavathi Thrisha
Thau Na Bujjayi || Chahau Rasa Jau
Dharau Agau Thau Na Gandh Suhayi | Aur
Ahitha Abhaccha Bhacchathi Kala Barani Na Jayi || Byoma Ghar Nadha Saila Kanana Ithe Chari Na Aghayi
|Neela Khura Aru Aruna Lochana Seth Seenga Suhayi || Bhooshana Chaudhaha
Khurani Ghoondhathi Su Dhau Kaha Samayi | Deed Nidura Na Darathi Kahau Thriguna
Hau Samujjayi || Harai Khalbala Dhanuja Manava Surani Seesa Chadayi | Rachi
Birachi Mukha Mauha Cchathri Lai Chalathi Chiththa Churayi || Naradhadhi Sukadhi
Munijana Thake Karatha Upayi | Thahi Kahu
Kaisau Kripanidhi Sakatha Sur Charayi?
