Chapter – 87- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The rarest birth as a
human has the great potential to achieve the supreme Bhramam
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! mind,
Oh! Mortals, the precious birth of a human have been wasted because of the attachment
to the destructible material matters and infinite sounds, touch, smell,
appearance, passion, etc. drenched in lust,
desire, ego, pride, jealousy, Ahamkara, and Mamakara, thereby hurled into
several Yonis/wombs of pigs and dogs, Oh! Ignorant, do not waste this precious
birth soaked in Ahamkara, Mamakara, arrogance, and ignorance, do not sow seeds
to take birth in the womb of ugly creatures by committing sins by words, deeds,
and mind. Oh! Mortal, the rarest birth of human has given by Lord Shyamasundhar,
the object of human birth is to utilize it for crossing the vast ocean of
worldly existence, the humans only have the capabilities to achieve that
all-pervasive supreme Bhramam resides as a soul in the Jeeva, and get rid of
Thapathraya/three kinds of sufferings and repeated cycles of births. The
precious birth as a human should be utilized for Japa/recitation of scriptures
and Veda, Thapa/austerities and penance, Swadhyaya, Shama, Dhama, Sathyam,
Shaucham, Astheyam, Ahimsa, celibacy, Dhanam, Dhaya, etc. and get rid of
impurities of mind and interest in worldly matters. Oh! Ignorant, you have
wasted the precious birth as a human drenched in infinite worldly matters of
fleeting nature, like the coconut in the hand of a monkey. Oh! Jeeva, you haven’t
utilized the precious birth as a human for meditation and contemplation upon Lord
Sri Hari, you have drenched in Samsararoopi Mrigathrishna/illusion of water in
the desert and you were chasing after worldly matters of fleeting nature,
alas! you have driven afar from the practice of pure love and devotion like
nectar at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari. Finally, whoever is driven away from the worship of Nandhanandhan ultimately gets
lost in their world of illusion, constant sufferings, and grief of worldly
existence.”
