Chapter – 156- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – Vinaya Pathrika/earnest
request to Lord Sri Hari
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, Oh!
Kripanidhi, I have not experienced the serenity of mind, my heart is burning
with the impurities of lust, desire, ego, jealousy, pride, Ahamkara, and
Mamakara. Oh! Prabho, Oh! Gopal, how can I get rid of the grief and sufferings
of the worldly existence/Thapathraya/three kinds of grief without your grace? Or
without practicing devotion at your lotus feet, or not remembering your
glorious legends? Oh! Prabho, you are the source of the functioning of the mind,
intellect, chiththa, Ahamkara, Prana, Karma, and Gnanendhriyas, and none of my
sensory organs are not in my control, they keep chasing the infinite sounds,
appearance, passion, touch, and smell. Oh! Prabho, I have been senseless, and keep
committing various sins by mind, words, and actions to fulfill my bodily and
material desires. Oh! Prabho, I have learned Universe and its living and
non-living things are illusionary, and it has impermanent nature, the mind,
actions, infinite sounds, appearances, passions, touch, and smell are
imaginary, still, I am not satisfied with my desires, getting attached to the
worldly matters and pushing myself into constant grief. Oh! Prabho, my mind,
and body is getting weak every second, and the anxiousness and the fear have taken
away my appetite, and sleep. Oh! Prabho, Oh! Mayapathi, I have drenched in your
unconquerable Maya, my mind is not listening to my wisdom, it is unwilling to
accept the absolute truth, that is all the material matters are perishable and the
soul is imperishable. Oh! Prabho, your powerful Maya making my mind dance to
the mouth of terrible death. Oh! Prabho, my mind is drenched in the fleeting
nature of worldly matters of possession, wealth, money, fame, richness, children,
wife, companion, and relatives, and pushing myself into constant grief in their
absence, acting like stray dogs and monkeys, that consume toxic meals and fall
into terrible death. Oh! Kripanidhi kindly sprinkles the water from your lotus
feet on your fervent devotees and provides intense devotion and faith at your
lotus feet, so that the Jeeva get rid of Thapathraya/three kinds of grief and
Jananamarana/repeated birth and deaths.”
