श्रीसद्गुरुरुवाच
अस्ति सर्वेक्ष्वरः कक्ष्चित्सर्वलोकेकैककारणः |
तं विनेदं जगत्सर्वं स्वभावाच्चेष्टते कथम् |
साक्षाद्दृष्ट्वैव विक्ष्वासं कर्तुमच्छन्ति नास्तिकाः |
विनैव दृढविक्ष्वासं दुर्दर्शो भगवान् हरिः ||
अनित्येपि शरीरेस्मिन् भार्यापुत्रधनेष्वापि |
यथा कुर्वन्ति विक्ष्वासं कुर्वन्ति न तथा हरौ |
किन्तु भागवता लोके शोकमोहभयावहे |
कुर्वन्ति नैव विक्ष्वासं कालेन कबलीकृते ||
पत्रं पुष्पं तोयमर्पितं श्रद्धयैव हि |
अक्ष्नाति भगवान् कृष्णो दृढभक्तिवशीकृतः ||
Shri Sadguru said
The root cause of the universe and all creation is Lord Sarveshwara (the God of Gods). Without Him how can the universe come to exist on its own? The atheists want to see things face to face to accept the reality of their existence. But Bhagavan Shri Hari never gives His darshan to those who do not have firm faith in Him. Though the human body, wife, children, wealth etc. are perishable, people have a lot of faith in them. But they refuse to have the same faith in Lord Hari, the Immortal. But, the great bhagavatas, who are the devotees of Lord Shri Hari, do not entertain faith in this universe which is the fountain-head of sorrow, desire and fears and which is destroyed by time. Bhagavan Shri Krishna readily accepts even any one of these, a leaf, a flower, or a fruit, when it is offered to Him with staunch faith and unaltered devotion.
