योग यज्ञ जप तप तीरथ ब्रतादि दान - श्री सुंदरदास जी
ॐ
Sanskrit Text
(कवित्त)
योग यज्ञ जप तप तीरथ ब्रतादि दान, साधन सकल नहीं याकी सरवर है । [1]
और देवी देवता उपासना अनेक भाँति, शंकर सब दूरि करि तिन ते न डर है ॥ [2]
सब ही के सीस पर पाँव दे मुकति होय, ‘सुन्दर’ कहत सो तो जनमे न मर है । [3]
मन बच काय करि अन्तर न राखै कछु, सन्तन की सेवा करै सोई निसतर है ॥ [4]
- श्री सुंदरदास जी
Hindi Meaning
योग, यज्ञ, जप, तप, तीर्थाटन, व्रत और दान—ये सभी साधन मिलकर भी 'संत-सेवा' की समानता नहीं कर सकते। [1]
यदि कोई अन्य नाना प्रकार के देवी-देवताओं की साधना का परित्याग कर, केवल संतों की पावन शरणागति ग्रहण कर उनकी सेवा में संलग्न रहता है, तो भी वह परम निर्भय पद को प्राप्त कर लेता है। [2]
श्री सुंदर दास जी कहते हैं कि ऐसा भक्त मुक्ति के भी शीश पर पाँव रखकर, उसे तुच्छ मानता है, जन्म-मरण के चक्र से तो वह स्वाभाविक ही मुक्त हो जाता है। [3]
जो मन, वचन और कर्म से निष्कपट होकर संतों की अनन्य सेवा करता है, वही इस संसार-सागर से पार उतरता है। [4]

(Kavitt)
Yoga Yajna Japa Tapa Tiratha Bratadi Daan, Sadhan Sakal Nahi Yaki Saravara Hai. [1]
Aura Devi Devata Upasana Aneka Bhanti, Shankara Sab Duri Kari Tina Te Na Dara Hai. [2]
Sab Hi Ke Sisa Para Panva De Mukati Hoya, ‘Sundar’ Kahata So To Janame Na Mara Hai. [3]
Mana Baca Kaya Kari Antara Na Rakhai Kachhu, Santan Ki Seva Karai Soi Nisatara Hai. [4]
- Shri Sundardas Ji
Even the combined practices of yoga, sacrifice, chanting, austerity, pilgrimage, vows, and charity cannot equal the greatness of serving the saints. [1]
If one abandons various forms of worship directed toward different deities and instead takes complete refuge in the saints, engaging oneself in their service, such a soul attains the state of supreme fearlessness. [2]
Śrī Sundara Dāsa Jī says that such a devotee places even liberation beneath his feet, regarding it as insignificant; freedom from the cycle of birth and death comes to him naturally. [3]
One who, with mind, speech, and action, serves the saints with complete sincerity — that person alone crosses over the ocean of worldly existence. [4]
