Chapter – 127- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The worldly matters
are toxic poison and the practice of devotion is nectar-like permanent bliss
Sri
Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, I have wasted the precious birth as a human achieved
after an abundance of pities in several births. Oh! Prabho, I have not practiced
celibacy, austerities, vows, Shama, Dhama, Dhanam, Dhaya, Sathyam, Shaucham,
Astheyam, Arjjavam, Swadhyaya, etc. or I did not get rid of the impurities of
mind such as lust, desire, ego, jealousy, pride, Ahamkara, and Mamakara, I was
drenched in Mahamoha/illusion, and chasing after the worldly matters of
possession, wealth, richness, money, fame, children, wife, companion, relatives, etc. that has fleeting nature. Oh! Prabho, I have taken so much care on my
bodily pleasure and its decoration, I have spent the youthful days in utter
arrogance and pride, I have attracted towards beautiful women of voluptuous bodily
features, like the dog looking at the luxurious meal, dribbling water from its togue,
unfortunately, I did not achieve any kind of pleasure. Oh! Prabho, I have been a
Mandhabudhdhi/dull-minded, lost the supreme bliss/Paramanandha, while chasing
after the unworthy broken pieces of glass-like worldly matters, Oh! Mortals,
you have abandoned the Amritharoopi/nectar-like the devotion at the lotus feet
of Lord Sri Hari and have chosen the Vishyaroopivisha/toxic poison like the
worldly matters of impermanent nature.”
