Chapter – 299- Sur -Vinaya – Pathrika –‘Bhrama Sathyam Jagath
Mithya’/soul is eternal, and all the material matters are an illusion – The liberated
souls
Sri Surdas
Maharaj speaks “Oh! Mortals, the fortunate ones contemplate and meditate upon
the lotus feet of Lord Sri Hari by word, mind, and deed. They abandon their
interest in worldly matters of infinite sounds, passion, touch, smell, and
appearances. They undertake austerities, Shama, Dhama, Sathyam, Dhaya, Dhanam,
Ahimsa, Arjjavam, Astheyam, Bhramacharya, Swadhyaya, etc., and get rid of the
impurities of the mind, the attachment to the possession, wealth, money, fame,
children, wife, companion, relatives, etc. The constant remembrance of the
sacred names of the Supreme Lord, and his endless glories would take away the
interest in worldly matters of fleeting nature, finally, they achieve the
superior state of Samadhi/transcendental, and remain in perpetual bliss, are
the liberated souls. The Universe and
the infinite material matters seem ‘unreal’ like dreams to them, they do not
feel hunger or thirst, cold or heat, disgrace or honor, joy or grief, happiness
or sorrow, they grow beyond the sufferings of the dualities. These liberated
souls will not have friends or foes, grief or joy, they roam fearlessly,
perceiving the all-pervasive Sacchidhanandha Swaroopa Paramathma Parambhramam
resides as a soul in living and non-living things/Oneness-in-all/ which is flawless,
unblemished, eternal bliss, and has no color, religion, faith, belief, clan,
appearance, etc. These liberated souls live in permanent bliss while living on Earth
without getting attached to worldly matters, and afterlife they attain union
with the supreme Bhramam so that they need not return to worldly existence or
repeated births.”
