Chapter – 106/103- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The absolute Truth/body
and soul
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mortals, all
the relationships such as father, mother, wife, children, companion, relatives, etc. formed in this life may continue to linger with you till the end of your
life, but once the Prana/vital air leaves the human body, it would be declared
as a corpse, and put into the fire that turns ashes or buried under Earth would feed
the worms, after that no one would remember about the deceased.
Hence, do not take pride in yourself and material matters, possession, wealth,
richness, fame, wife, children, companion, relatives, etc. it has impermanent nature.
Oh! Mortal, always do good for the welfare of all by word, mind, and deed, observing austerities,
celibacy, vows, self-control, truthfulness, kindness, charity, non-violence, purity
of mind/free from lust, desire, ego, jealousy, pride, anger, Ahamkara, and Mamakara.
The constant chase for the appeasement of physical and mental pleasure would
heave the Jeeva into endless miseries and grief, and the wealth, possession,
richness, fame, and money amassed in the mad rush has a short life, it won’t last for
long. Oh! Mortal, leave your chase for material and physical pleasures, the
Universe and its diversified matters of Shabdha/sound, Sparsha/touch,
Rasa/passion, Roopa/appearance, and Gandha/smell has impermanent nature, whoever
takes birth has to leave the world one day.”
Jag Mei Jeevath Hi Kau Nathau | Man
Bicchurau Than Cchar Hoyigau Koau Na
Bath Puchathau || Mei Meri Kabahu Nahi Keejai Keejai Panch Suhathau |
Bishayasaktha Rahath Nisi Basar Sukha
Siyarau Dhukha Thathau || Sanch
Joot Kari Maya Jori Aapun Rookhau Khathau | Surdas Kacchu Thira Na Rahaigau
Jo Aayau So Jathau ||
