Chapter – 263- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –
Sri Surdas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Gopal, I know one thing, you are unpleased with me and don’t want to reside in my heart, because my heart always seeks opportunities to appease my senses, because I am impure, drenched in lust, desire, ego, jealousy, pride, anger, Ahamkara, and Mamakara, so I am inauspicious. I have lost the goodness to address myself as your devotee because I did not engage in any of the moral deeds, austerities, vows, Shamadhamadhi, swadhyaya, etc. I did not take up worship or singing in praise of you, hence it would be unfair to address me as your sincere devotee, it would be like an unwanted creeper around the plantain tree, a lion among the herd of cows, a materialistic person among the saintly, eventually, I have driven afar from you. Oh! Prabho, if the son of the King turned out mendicant, it would affect the King only, just like that If I turned out unworthy, and distressed, it would bring disgrace to you. Oh! Prabho, you are the Lord of the Universe, and its living and non-living things, you are the protector, and you are father and mother to the Jeeva, hence kindly provide shelter at your lotus feet.”
Mere
Hridhaya Nahi Aavath Hau He Gupala
Hau Ithani Janath | Kapati Kripana
Kucheela Kudharshana Dhin Udi Bishaya Basana Banath || Kadhali Kantaka Sadhu
Asadhuhi Kehari Kai Sanga Dhenu Bandhane | Yaha Bipareeth Jani Thuma Jan Ki
Anthar Dhai Bicha Rahe Lukane || Jo Raja
Sutha Hoyi Bhikhari Laj Parai The Jayi
Bikane | Surdas Prabhu Apane Jan Kau Kripa Karabhu Jau Lehu Nidhane ||
