Chapter – 145- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The significance of
Srihari Namasamaran
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mortals, in
this Kali era there is no Thapa, Japa, Yoga, that could provide desired results
or help to get rid of the sufferings and grief of worldly existence, other than
the recitation of ‘Sri Ramanama’. Oh! Mortals,
the purity of mind, and the ingredients used for the Yajja and Thapa have disappeared,
hence the fire sacrifices and various rites performed to please the deity cannot
bring desired results, therefore take shelter in the recitation of ‘Sri
Harinama’ that would provide the serenity of mind. Maharishi Narada, Shukadeva,
and illustrious Sanakadhis much discussed finding a solution to protect the
souls from the evilness of the Kali era, they referred to all the sacred texts,
finally, after churning the Veda and Vedantha, they arrived at a conclusion
that the ‘Sri Harinama’ is the essence of the Veda, hence the recitation of the
Sri Harinama is the only source to remove the impurities of Kaliera, and there
is no Yajja, Thapa, Yoga could bring desired results, even if it was performed meticulously.
Oh! Mortals, the Kali era has trapped the Jeeva from the ten directions and stopped performing all the spiritual
and religious rites like the fish inside the net. Therefore, sing in praise of
Lord Sri Hari, remember the glorious names of the Lord and endless legends, it
would remove the Bhavabhara/sufferings and grief of worldly existence and
Thapathrya/three kinds of sufferings as well.”
