Chapter – 297- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mortals, abandon your
interest in worldly matters of infinite sounds, passion, touch, smell, and
appearance, and chase after the material matters of possession, wealth, money,
richness, children, wife, fame, companion, and relatives of fleeting nature, and
engage in the worship at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari. Oh! Mortals, the worship of demi-gods for
fulfilling desires, performing rites, etc. won’t protect you from the grief and
suffering of the bottomless ocean of worldly existence and repeated births. Oh!
Mortals, we have taken several births in various wombs of animals, birds, reptiles,
and humans, and in each birth, we were absorbed in that body and committed sins
by words, deeds, and mine, thereby we have accumulated sins of mountain-sized, and
there is no way out of the cycles of births unless and until the sins nullified,
and there is no way out to get rid of the accumulated sins other than the meditation
and contemplation of Lord Sri Hari. The devotion and pure love at the lotus
feet of Lord Sri would work as a powerful sword to sieve off the mountain-sized
sins of several births. The Veda, Purana, Bhagavath, Gita, etc. highly
emphasizes the practice of devotion and austerities, the worship at the lotus
feet of Lord Sri Hari would work as the safest ferry to cross the unfathomable
ocean of worldly existence and repeated births. Oh! Mortals, listen to me
carefully, you don’t have much time left to live, leave your attachments to
worldly matters, and practice meditation and contemplation at the lotus feet of
Lord Sri Hari immediately, life is unpredictable and has the life of water
bubbles, and the time spent won’t come back, hence take this opportunity to
achieve the fruitfulness of life, otherwise you may throw yourself into eighty-four
lakh wombs and go through hellish tortures to achieve the precious birth as a human.”
