Chapter – 216-  Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika – The impurities of mind throw the soul into repeated births in the eighty-four lakhs of the womb as air-born, water-born, and earth-born creatures

 

Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, Oh! Sri Hari, I have already surrendered at your lotus feet, Oh! Kripanidhan, kindly shower your kind and compassionate grace upon me, like the grace that liberated many sinners from suffering and grief. Oh! Prabho, my Karma and Gnanendhriyas/sensory organs – 1) The five sensory organs/Karmendhriyas - eyes that wandered to see all unwanted and ugly things, the nose that chased after ugly smells, the hands, and legs that put into action for immoral acts, ears that chased for gossips, rumors, etc. Oh! Prabho, my senses were playing percussions, and string instruments of their own taste, according to its own Laya, Shruthi, and Raga, and forced my mind to play like a fine dancer, I was chasing after material matters to please my senses, unfortunately, I haven’t succeeded yet. Oh! Prabho, I am worn out of dancing to the tune of senses, chasing after the worldly matters of possession, wealth, money, fame, richness, children, wife, companion, and relatives, that constantly pushed me into grief and agony. Oh~! Prabho, I was floating through the waves of the impurities of mind such as Kama/lust, Krodha/anger, Lobha/greed, Moha/desire, Madha/pride, hence I never thought of Purusharththa/how to achieve the Dharma/righteousness, ARththa/wealth, Kama/desire and Moksha/liberation from repeated births. Oh! Prabho, I am an unfortunate Jeeva, my impurities of mind threw me into eighty-four lakhs types of the womb of air-born, water-born, and creatures, and forced me to dance to the tune of my senses, even after taking several births in various wombs, my desire to please the senses have not come to an end or I have not felt peace and serenity, or contentment in my life.”
