As bichari hari bhagat sayane

Chaupai 4, Under Doha 119 · Uttar Kand

Chaupai Text

अस बिचारि हरि भगत सयाने। मुक्ति निरादर भगति लुभाने॥ भगति करत बिनु जतन प्रयासा। संसृति मूल अबिद्या नासा॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

asa bicāri hari bhagata sayāne। mukti nirādara bhagati lubhāne॥ bhagati karata binu jatana prayāsā। saṃsṛti mūla abidyā nāsā॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

Thinking thus, the wise devotees of Hari remain absorbed in devotion and pay no heed to liberation. By practicing devotion, the root ignorance of saṃsāra—the world of birth and death—is destroyed of itself, without effort or labor.
