Nirdvandva Vaisnava Sudhu Japa Kare Mala
Bhajan | Traditional
Verse 1
‘nirdvandva’ vaiṣṇava śudhu japa kare mālā
balaye eirūpa yā’rā khāya manakalā
Verse 2
vaiṣṇava nirīha, akṛtadroha, haita’ svabhāve
kintu nahe hīnavīrya yathā loka bhāve
Verse 3
bhāratera dui yuddhe dui mahāśaya
vaiṣṇavera agraṇī tārā karila vijaya
Verse 4
nijendriya tṛiptivāñchāya yuddha nāhi kare
vaiṣṇava baliyā tāi vidita saṁsāre
Verse 1
Those who say that in order to be a pure unadulterated vaiṣṇava devotee of the Lord one must not do anything except chant silently Hare Kṛṣṇa japa on his meditational beads, are foolishly bewildered by their own mental concoctions.
Verse 2
A vaiṣṇava is certainly meek, unoffensive, and without malice to others as his natural quality, but this does not mean that the vaiṣṇava devotee of the Lord is without courage or strength, as common people may think.
Verse 3
On this planet of Bharata there were two great wars which were fought during the presence of two incarnations of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. There wars had two vaiṣṇavas, pure devotees of the Lord, fighting as the commander in chief of an army, and these devotees of the Lord were victorious. (Hanuman fought for Lord Ramacandra, and Arjuna fought for Lord Kṛṣṇa.)
Verse 4
These two pure devotees of the Lord did not fight in these wars out of desire for enjoying sense gratification for themselves. Rather they acted out of pure desire to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore they are renowned as great pure devotees throughout the entire material world.
