Chapter – 120- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The sufferings of the
fetus in the mother’s womb/Garbhavasa Dhukham
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mortals, the
sufferings in the mother's womb/Garbhavasa Dhukham is inexplainable, the fetus
constantly struggles to move in the tiny and dark space in the womb, filled with
its own excreta blood, water, and worms. The moment the child comes out of the
womb, fallen upside down on the Earth, it would completely forget the
hellish tortures it had undergone in its mother’s womb, and it is the reason Jeeva gets
drenched in lust, desire, ego, jealousy, proud, anger, Ahamkara, and Mamakara.
Oh! Mortals, remember those days you were in the mother’s womb, lying upside
down in your own excreta, blood, and water, infested with the worms. Who was there to
protect you while you were in extreme agony in your mother’s womb? Just put
your thoughts and think of those days, who was nurturing those delicate limbs
of the fetus? Oh! Mortal, you were completely helpless inside
the womb of your mother, who was feeding you with the life sources? somebody
has to take care of you after falling upside down from the mother’s womb. Oh!
Selfish mortals, you have been ungrateful to that Sacchidhanandha Swaroopa
Paramathma Parambhramam resides as a soul who has protected you while in the
mother’s womb. The Supreme Lord Sri Hari is the creator, preserver, and destroyer
as well, he is the protector of the Universe and its living and non-living things,
Oh! Ignorant, you did not worship that supreme Lord, or meditate or contemplate
upon him, instead you have been chasing after possession, wealth, money,
richness, fame, children, wife, companion, relatives, etc. which has
fleeting nature. Oh! Ignorant you have been drenched in infinite diversified
matters of the Universe, like the deer/Jeeva get into the trap of the hunter/Vishayaroopi/toxic
listening to the soulful music/worldly matters, eventually get killed with the
shot of an arrow/death.”
