Opening lines

चेतन यह घर नाहीं तेरौ। घट-पटादि नैननि गोचर जो, नाटक पुद्गल केरौ॥

The summary

कवि मनराम के इस आध्यात्मिक पद में चेतन आत्मा को समझाया गया है कि आँखों से दिखने वाला शरीर-घर पुद्गल का नाटक है। माता, पिता, पत्नी, पुत्र सब कर्मबन्ध के घेरे हैं; मृत्यु पर कोई साथ नहीं आता। सद्गुरु-वचन के दीपक से असंख्यात प्रदेशी ज्ञानमय निज स्वरूप को पहचानने का उपदेश है।
