Chapter – 246- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –
Sri Surdas
Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, Oh! Sri Hari, I have surrendered at your lotus feet
knowing that you are the protector of distressed souls, your sacred names are the safest ferry to cross the unfathomable ocean of worldly existence and repeated births.
Oh! Prabho, the Veda and scriptures highly eulogize your glories, the Byadh
hunter Guha, Gridharaj Jatayu, Ganika the prostitute, Bhramin Ajamila had achieved your
supreme abode merely chanting your sacred names, Devi Ahalya, Gautama Pathni got
released from the curse at the touch of the dust particles from your feet. Oh!
Prabho, the elephant Gajendra got seized on the leg by the crocodile in the
pond, fought for several years, and finally uttered your sacred name, before
completing it you rushed to protect him and released the curse of
the elephant and crocodile. Oh! Prabho, your ardent devotee Prahlada and his
grandson Bali blissfully engaged in singing in praise of your glories, although
they have born in the clan of demons. Oh! Prabho, the child devotee Dhruva
undertook extreme penance at the age of five and achieved your compassionate grace,
prostrated before your lotus feet, and your affectionate touch with the
conch on his cheek encouraged him to sing in praise of your glories. Oh!
Prabho, Pandavas who resembles righteousness got protected from each and every trouble
all through their lives, Devi Dhraupadhi was humiliated in the large assembly
of Kaurava and was protected with your grace. Oh! Bhakthvathsal, Oh!
Kripasagar, Oh! Pathithapavan, you have incarnated whenever Mother Earth was
troubled with the burden of evil entities, thus your various incarnations were
highly praised in the scriptures and Veda. Oh! Prabho, Lord
Bhrama, Lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva, Lord Indra, deities, Rishis, and Sages sing in
praise of your glories, contemplate upon you and prostrate at your lotus feet.”
