Chapter – 129- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – All the material
matters are perishable, attachment to worldly matters of infinite and diversified
nature would hurl the soul into constant grief and agony
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mortals, you
have wasted the precious birth as a human, if not remember the sacred names of Lord
Sri Hari. You have been chasing after the impermanent nature of possession,
wealth, money, fame, richness, children, wife, companion, and relatives, and
thrown yourself into constant grief and agony, eventually, you have lost
welfare in the Ihaloka/life on Earth and Paraloka/afterlife as well. Oh!
Ignorant, the precious birth as a human should be utilized for learning absolute
truth/knowledge of self/Paramarththa Thaththva, being in the association of
Santh, Mahathma, noble souls, and constant remembrance of the supreme Bhramam,
otherwise, your birth itself is unworthy, a burden on the Earth. Oh! Mortals, the material matters such as wealth, possessions, family, relatives, and companions wouldn’t follow you in the afterlife. You have to travel alone to Paraloka/afterlife, and you were
drenched in the illusion that all your comforts and luxuries, children, wife, etc.
would follow your afterlife too. Oh! Ignorant you have wasted your mind and
body for something that does not exist at all, you have been chasing material
pleasure your entire life ensuring the welfare of all, leaving your Bhagavathprapthi/achievement
of supreme abode. It was your misconception and attachment to worldly matters that pushed you into constant suffering, the Universe and its diversified matters
are like dreams, it has fleeting nature. Now, the time has arrived to leave the
Earth, you have been driven madly by lust, desire, ego, jealousy, pride,
Ahamkara, and Mamakara, and wasted your entire life in amassing material possession
of impermanent nature which is compared to Trina/grass. Oh! Fool, you have
been in a deep slumber of ignorance, leaving the Harismaran/remembrance of
all-pervasive supreme Bhramam Lord Sri Hari. Oh! Blind, you have soaked in
ignorance and arrogance, time to wake up and think about yourself, contemplate
and meditate upon Lord Sri Rama, sing in praise of him and leave all those
worries and interest in worldly matters.”
