There was a Seth (money lender) by the name of Shrives Nayak cotemporary of Maharaj Krishna Dev Rai of Vijaynagar. He was a jewel merchant. Once a Brahmin came to him sad sethji My daughter has got engaged and now I need money for her marriage. I have come to you with the how of some help.”
The seth refused saying Am I under an obligation to help; you in marriage of your daughter? I shall not give a penny.”
The Brahmin becomes helpless. He came to know that the Seth wife was spiritual and she firmly believed in the die leaving all material things behind. Therefore on should perform noble tasks. The Brahmin went to the seth wife.
The Seth wife went that asking money form her husband was useless and thus she handed over a very precious moseying to the Brahmin so that he could pawn it.
The Brahmin could think of no other person who would pawn such precious nose ring and ultimately went t to the Seth.
The Seth on seeing the nose ring thought within. Such a precious stone who could given this to such a wretched Brahmin? He very carefully scrutinized the nose ring and told the Brahmin the he would give the money for that nose ring the next day.
The Seth kept the nose ring in the inner most cell of the safe and kept the day with himself. He put a second lock on the outside of the safe and went home. He called out to his wife and asked. Where is the valuable nose rign that you used to wear often?
She could imagine the consequence of telling the truth. She started thinking as to what to do now and in a hurry spoke out It is kept inside.
The Seth enquired where inside she was sure that she would not be spared now by her husband he being such a great miser.
The seth wife mixed poised in a bowl and sat in form t of the idol of God saving Madhya myself to your in forever. I have no other option. You are the almighty and I a simple woman. Now ;you only guide me……. And please do one thing Bestow upon my husband the gift of you dettion. As for me I going to be on with you. My you wish be fulfilled my lord.
She kept on praying incessantly and then reposed in self for a while. The sperm Being is all pervading and all powerful. A miracle happened then and there. As soon as the Seth wife brought the bowl near given to the Brahmin fell into it with a splash.
“What is this She fond out that it was the same nose ring.
God I had heard that you are the creator protector and destroyer of the universe but only today. I got see your miraculous act in realty.
Now what kind of mentions would have filled her heart only she knows she is going on wiping away her tears filled with love and obligation and is continuing to give thanks saying, Those who consider themselves orphan and helpless are at great fault. Mabhav you are the master of all and with everyone always. Even I a was not aware of this. I was about to end my life but you wanted to save me. You brought the nose ring and kept it into the bowl. How I had thought of being scolded and rebuked by my husband and what no but Lord you ..
Thus praying with a heartfelt gratitude, she got deeply absorbed in the thought of the Lord and got filled with divine bliss. Only a devotee can understand the peace, the bliss and the charm of being one with God by praying with a heart filled with love for Him. The heart saturated with peace and eye filled with gratitude and tears of lovely She said to her husband, Take your nose ring O dear husband.”
What This nose rign It is yours Then the one which is with me is whose
The Seth instantly ran towards his shop He opened the safe and then inner most cell where he had kept the nose ring. To his surprise the nose rign had disappeare!
He was abosolutely confused at the thought of the nose ring reaching his wife thought kept so secretly. I miser coder this illusory world and perishable body to be true. I did not know about the glory of you immortal oh Madhya Lord compassionate kind God seth Shrinvas now no longer remained Shrinivas ( A bode of wealth) but had become Bhagavadnivas ( a bode of God). He announced publicly whoever is in need can come to shrinivas fulfilled come and take… … take..
A whole life is consumed in amassing wealth but what time does it take in giving away. Everyone shall be left behind when you will bie. Shrinivas renounced and it does not follow that you will not. The only difference could be that Shrinivas gave up everymen for God while others may be compelled to do so. When one dies he goes leaving behind everything here itself. Who will go without leaving something or another? Even the most wretched one goes leaving behind something. Before the day finally comes when everything will have to be forsaken one should learn to repose in the self for at least sometime. Our heart should writhe for God or become lone with Him considering Him to be our own.
Shrinivas gave up everything and become an ascetic. He along with his four children and wife want other Ashram of San Vyasaraiji you have achieved, we also want to experience that nectar of the self.
Seeing the devotion of Shrinivas Guru Vyasaraiji named him purandar Vitthal. The same Shrinivas become prandardsas and absorbed himself so much in the devotion of God that his life become blessed Purandaerji used to live on alms. Whatever plain or simple food he used to get he would not eat alone. He would first distribute it amongst the poor people he used to meet on the way and keep for he only own share. He would never keep in store for the next day. All his four children and had also dedicated them selves to God.
As time passed prandardasji became famous and more and more people started joining his group of devotional singing. On one side there are holy people who rejoice and lain there are holy people who rejoice and gain by the saint darsan satsang and company while on the other hand there are also such vile slanderers who envy such saints seeing their fame. The same happened with his saint also a she always happened with every saint who has tried to alarm people of the wicked selfish elements in the society. Some mean spirited started troubling him. This did not bring down his repetition rather it enhanced all the more become people were well aware of the social welfare works bang carried out by him.
The devotional songs of Purandardasji become very famous amongst people and began to be sung in almost very home. Some people revered his poem in the same way as the scripterslke Upanishads etc. are esteemed. Now the hearts of the anti religious elements started blazing with envy become they had been absolutely unsuccessful inmaligining his reputation and were being censured by the society. The incited the pundits. The pundits threw away the collection of prandarasji poems. It brought about a sitar in the society the virtuous people in the society united them selves and condemned the conspirers. They prayed to prunandarassji with tear filled eyes to somehow bring and the scriptures were returned to the devotees.
The people respectfully worshipped the scriptures of prandasdasji and made it their own. Those scriptures only came to be known all over by the name of prandasdasji ki Upanishad. This popular saint went to the God abode at the age of eight in the year1562.
Today the propagation of devotional songs of Purandardasji has greatly increased but fortunate are the ones who gained form the satsang and company of the sent during the time he was alive . They all filled their life with divine nectar charm and bliss.
