Chapter – 272- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –
Sri Surdas Maharaj
speaks “Oh! Mortals, the supreme Lord Sri Raghunath is the Vidhatha who disperses
the fruit of Karma of the Jeeva. The Siddha and Muniganas conduct austerities
and Tapasya, Shamadhamadhi, Swadhyaya, celibacy, etc. The Yogis undertake Yoga,
Dharana, Samadhi, etc. Lord Bhrama
and Lord Mahadeva undertake contemplation and meditation, but none of them
can rewrite their destiny. Oh! Mortals, the Veda, and scriptures highly eulogize the
three categories of people 1) Sadhaka/spiritual seeker who takes up austerities to
control the impurities of mind such as lust, ego, anger, jealousy, desire,
pride, Ahamkara and Mamakara, and 2) the Pathivrathanari/chaste and devoted
women, and 3)Thapasvi/Santh, Mahathma,
noble souls, worships Lord, sing in praise of his glories
with pure love. Oh! Mortals, it is impossible to achieve serenity of mind, or get rid of Karmabandhan/ attachment to worldly matters of infinite nature, sufferings and grief of worldly existence
and repeated birth without singing in praise of Lord Sri Hari and worship of
him.”
