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.”
Ab Hau Hari
Saranagath Aayau | Kripanidhan
Srishti Heriyai Jihi Pathithani Apanayau || Thala Mridhanga Janjj Indhrini Mili
Beena Benu Bajayau | Man Mere Nat Ke Nayak Jyau Thinahi Nach Nachayau || Ughatyau
Sakala Sangeetha Reethi Bhava Angani
Anga Banayau | Kama Krodha Madha Lobha Moha Ki Thana Tharangani Gayau || Sur Aneka Dheha Dhari Bhoothal Nana Bhava
Dhikhayau | Nachyau Nach Laccha Chaurasi Kabahu Na Poorau Payau ||
