BHAKTI SULABHAM- भक्तिसुलभं

 SUBHASHITHANI:308

माभीर्मन्दमनो विचिन्त्य बहुधा यामीश्चिरं यातनाः
नामी नः प्रभवन्ति पापरिपवः स्वामी ननु श्रीधरः I
 आलस्यं व्यपनीय भक्तिसुलभं ध्यायस्व नारायणं
लोकस्य व्यसनापनोदनकरो दासस्य किं न क्षमः II 11- Mukunda mala

Mabhir manda-mano vichintya bahudha yamis chiram yatana
Naivami prabhavanti papa-ripavah svami nanu sridharah
Alasyam vyapaniya bhakti-sulabham dhyayasva narayanam
Lokasya vyasanapanodana-karo dasasya kim na kshamah

Oh my dull witted  mind, Do not fret and think, Of the pains that God of death will give. How can your foes and sin touch you ever, Is not your master the great Lord Sridharaa.  Leave out this indolence, And pray Lord Narayana, Who is easy to approach. Will not that  master Remove the sorrows of his devotees in a flash?

பற்றுடை அடியவர்க்கு எளியவன்; பிறர்க்கு அரிய
வித்தகன் மலர்மகள் விரும்பும்நம் அரும்பெற லடிகள்
மத்துறு கடைவெண்ணெய் களவினில் உரவிடையாப்புண்டு
எத்திறம், உரலினோடு இணைத்து இருந்தேங்கிய எளிவே!

"He (the Lord) is easily accessible to those who are devoted to Him, (but) is virtually inaccessible to others who are not devoted. He is truly amazing. He is liked by Mother Lakshmi who has the lotus as her birth-place, and is very hard to reach. Yet it is the same Lord who let himself be punished for stealing butter, by letting Himself be tied to a mortar. Moreover, He stayed tied to the mortar as if helpless. He is indeed easy to approach and attainable for His devotees!" ( Thiruvaimozhi-1.3.1 )

वरमिममुपदेशमाद्रियध्वं
निगमवनेषुनितान्तचारखिन्नाः
विचिनुत भवनेषु वल्लवीना-
मुपनिषदर्थमुलूखले निबद्धम् ॥२. २८॥Sri Krishna karnamrutam

Varamimam upadesamaadriyadhvam
Nigama vaneshu nitaanta chaara khinnaah
Vichinuta bhavaneshu vallaveenaam
Upanishad artham ulukale nibaddham II
O!Wise men, who have become tired after searching in vain for the paramatma in the vast forest of the vedas. Hear this advice from me .  He is nowhere else , but is in the houses of gopis tied to a mortar.

मम मद्भक्त भक्तेषु प्रीतिरभ्यधिका भवेत् I
तस्मात् मद्भक्त भक्तास्च पूजनीय विशेषतः IIMahabharatham

Those who are devotees of my devotees, they are very dear to me. Therefore my devotees have to be respected immensely. ( Sri Krishna )

मज्जन्मनः फलमिदं मधुकैटभारे
मत्प्रार्थनीयमदनुग्रह एष एव ।
त्वद्भृत्यभृत्यपरिचारकभृत्यभृत्य-
भृत्यस्य भृत्य इति मां स्मर लोकनाथ ॥ Mukunda mala -२७

Oh! Jagannatha , one who destroyed Madhu and Kaitabha , To consider my life to be fruitful , I plead for your grace and have a singular request . kindly make me to be thy devotee’s , devotee’s, assistant’s devotee’s, devotee’s , devotee’s devotee. 

राजविद्या राजगुह्यं पवित्रमिदमुत्तमम् |
प्रत्यक्षावगमं धर्म्यं सुसुखं कर्तुमव्ययम् || BG9.2||

This knowledge is the king of sciences and the most profound of all secrets. It purifies those who hear it. It is directly realizable, in accordance with dharma, easy to practice, and everlasting in effect.

पत्रं पुष्पं फलं तोयं यो मे भक्त्या प्रयच्छति |
तदहं भक्त्युपहृतमश्नामि प्रयतात्मन: || BG9.26||

If one offers to Me with devotion a leaf, a flower, a fruit, or even water, I delightfully partake of that article offered with love by My devotee in pure consciousness.

भक्त्या त्वनन्यया शक्य अहमेवंविधोऽर्जुन |
ज्ञातुं द्रष्टुं च तत्त्वेन प्रवेष्टुं च परन्तप || BG11.54||

bhaktyā tv ananyayā śhakya aham evaṁ-vidho ’rjuna
jñātuṁ draṣhṭuṁ cha tattvena praveṣhṭuṁ cha parantapa
O Arjuna, by unalloyed devotion alone can I be known as I am, standing before you. Thereby, on receiving my divine vision, O scorcher of foes, one can enter into union with me.

नान्या स्पृहा रघुपते हृदयेऽस्मदीये।
सत्यं वदामि च भवानखिलान्तरात्मा॥
भक्तिं प्रयच्छ रघुपुंगव निर्भरां मे।
कामादिदोषरहितं कुरु मानसं च॥२॥Ram charit manas

There is no other craving in my heart, O Lord of the Raghus: I speak the truth and You are the Spirit indwelling the hearts of all. Grant me intense devotion to Your feet, O crest-jewel of Raghus, and free my mind from faults like concupiscence etc ॥2॥
