Chapter
– 118- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The sufferings
of the fetus in the mother’s womb/Garbhavasa Dhukham
Sri
Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mind, listen to me carefully and kindly follow my advice,
I promise upon Lord Sri Ramachandra, the Veda Shastra Puranas, and the
preceptors highly emphasize the significance of devotion and worship of Lord
Sri Hari, following Varnna/Bhramin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, and Shudra, and the
Ashrama Dharma/Bhramacharya, Grihastha, Vanaprastha and Sanyasa Ashrama by word,
mind, and deed. Otherwise, the Jeeva hurl into the sufferings in the womb, a tiny dark space of Garbhavasa Dhukham/sufferings in the mother's womb, filled
with the excreta of the fetus, lying upside down in the pool of blood, water,
and worms. The fetus continues to grow
in the excreta of its own, in extreme distress which is beyond description,
unable to move inside the tiny and dark space inside the womb, it grows with
the types of food the mother chooses thoughtlessly, the hot, spicy and cold meals
consumed by its mother put the fetus in extreme agony, which makes the fetus constantly
remember the Lord, finally after attaining maturity it would fall out of the
womb upside down on the Earth. Oh! Mortals, remember those days spent in the
mother’s womb and the struggles you have undergone/Garbhavasadhukham, hence abandon
the interest in the worldly matters of possession, richness, fame, wealth,
money, children, wife, companion and relatives, etc. that would keep hurling
you in the Garbhavasadhukham/repeated births. Whoever surrendered at the lotus
feet of Lord Sri Hari got cleansed from the impurities of mind such as lust,
desire, ego, jealousy, anger, pride, Ahamkara, and Mamakara. Oh! Jeeva, the
sacred names of the Lord has the highest potential
to cleanse the mind of the Jeeva, even the grave sinners have attained liberation
surrendering at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Har, hence contemplate and meditate
upon Lord Sri Hari and thereby get rid of sufferings of worldly existence.”
Ab Man Mani Dhau Rama Dhuhayi | Man Bacha Krama Harinama Hridhaya Dhari Jyau Guru
Bedha Bathayi || Mahakashta Dhasa Masa Garbha Basi Adhomukha Seesa Rahayi |
Ithani Kadina Sahi Thai Kethika Ajahu Na Thu Samujjayi || Mitigaye Raga Dhwesha
Sab Thin Ke Jin Hari Preethi Lagayi |
Surdas Prabhu Nama Ki Mahima Pathitha Paramagathi Payi ||
