Chapter – 194- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, Oh!
Antharyami/The supreme Lord who resides as a soul/indestructible Purusha in the
Jeeva is eternal, which is the sole source of functioning of the mind,
intellect, Chiththa, Ahamkara, Karma and Gnanendhriyas/sensory organs, Prana/vital
air. Oh! Karunamaya/ocean of mercy, I am wicked and deceitful, you are the
knower of All, how can I hide my impure nature from you? You are omnipresent,
all-pervasive supreme Bhramam resides as a soul in the Jeeva. Oh! Probho, you
have given me the rarest birth as a human and nurtured me while I was burning
in the Jadaragni/suffering in the tiny space dark womb of the mother, I have
been ungrateful to you I did not practice the worship or meditate upon you. Oh!
Prabho, I have been drenched in worldly matters of possession, richness, wealth,
fame, money, children, wife, companion, relatives, etc. and I have been chasing
after physical pleasures, Alas! after all these, I did get satisfied or none my
desires were always been uncontrollable, like the pig that keeps feeding and
breeding in the dirt. Oh! Prabho, I did not take pleasure in the association of
Santh, Mahathma, and noble souls, I did feel bored in the association of
Mahathmas who constantly engages in the singing in praise of Lord Sri Hari,
Alas! I found great pleasure in the wicked and deceitful people soaked in worldly
matters. Oh! Prabho, I am an unfortunate Jeeva driven away from the worship of
Lord Sri Hari, I did not take shelter at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari,
instead, I was singing in praise of the rich and wealthy. Oh! Prabho, I am a
grave sinner, did not practice Swadhyaya/recitation of Veda and scriptures,
austerities, Shama, Dhama, Sathyam, Dhaya, Dhyanam, Dhanam, Ahimsa, Astheya,
Arjjavam, etc. I was chasing after wealth, possession, fame, richness, money, wife,
children, companion, relatives, etc., hence I am the leader of sinners, Oh! Sri
Pathi/consort of Goddess Sri Mahalakshmi, Oh! Prabho, kindly listen to my cries I have set an
example of myself as the gravest sinner.”
