Chapter – 206- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The supreme Lord Sri
Hari is the savior of the distressed soul, liberates the Jeeva from three kinds
of grief
Sri Surdas
Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, Oh! Sri Hari, how did I know you are the protector
of the distressed? If I did not experience your kindness, how did I know? Hence,
kindly liberate me from the sufferings and grief of worldly existence, so that
I shall consider you as my father. Oh! Prabho, the prostitute/Ganika, Byadh/hunter
Guha, Ajamila/twice born Bhramin, Geedh/Jatayu wasn’t grave sinners like me,
but all of them got liberated from the ocean of worldly existence, if you are true
to your vows as the protector of the distressed people, kindly liberate me, I
am a grave sinner. Oh! Prabho, either protect your vow to your devotees by
liberating me from the sufferings or give up your title of ‘Pathitha Pavan’.
Oh! Prabho, I have heard from the scriptures and Veda that you have released
all your devotees from the sufferings and grief of worldly existence and
provided ‘Sri Baikund’/The supreme abode where there are no three kinds of
grief, now I am a grave sinner, distressed, helpless, taken shelter at your
lotus feet, and you are the savior of the distressed soul, so the real
challenge is before you.”
