Chapter – 258- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –
Sri Surdas
Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, Oh! Sri Hari, why did you put me in my mother’s
womb and throw me into the bottomless ocean of worldly existence? you have
given precious birth as a human to steal all the evilness of the Kali era? Oh!
Prabho, you are the savior of distressed souls, the Veda, and the scriptures
highly praise your compassion and kindness to your devotees, if you do not want to protect me from the
Thapathraya/three kinds of grief, why did you promise your devotees to protect
them in troubles? Why did you hand me to the Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha,
Mathshcharya, Ahamkara, and Mamakara? Oh! Prabho, I have learned that Manasika
Puja/worship of Lord Sri Hari in the heart and Manasika Japa/utterance of
sacred hymns and verses of Lord Sri Hari in the heart, contemplation, and
meditation at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari, are extremely difficult to practice.
Oh! Kripanidhan, Oh! Keshav, Oh! Kripalu, kindly shower your compassionate
grace upon me, and I have committed
several sins by words, mind, and deed, kindly do not take them seriously. Oh!
Prabho, I have become a fool all my life, I have been attached to wealth,
possession, richness, money, fame, children, wife, companion, and relatives,
sadly those were never been mine, or permanent, so whom do I love? Oh! Prabho,
I do not know how many births I have taken in the womb as air-born, water born
and Earthborn, I am tired of describing my ill deeds to Lord Yama and undergoing
the hellish torture, kindly protect me.”
Jau Pai Yahai
Bichar Pari| Thau Kath Kalikalmasha Lootan Kau Meri Dheha Dhari || Jau Nahi
Anusarath Nama Jaga Bidhitha Biradh Kath Keenhau | Kama Krodha, Madha Lobha
Moha Kai Hath Bandhi Kath Dheenhau || Manasa Aur Manasi Seva Dhoau Agadha Kari Janau | Hohu Kripalu
Kripanidhi Kesav Bahu Aparadh Na Manau || Kakau Griha Dhara Suth Sampathi Jasau
Keejai Heth | Surdas Prabhu Dhin Udi Mariyath Jama Kau Lekhoau Dheth ||
