Durlavam hi Sada Sukham ( Incessant happiness is indeed infrequent : Valmiki Ramayana ).The Threefold miseries are there for everyone ,one has to suffer a lot mentally if the spiritual relation with the Divinity is not present.If one is mentally and spiritually strong ,then he has the preparedness to overcome the struggles . Here's a collection of various verses for all of us suffering :
1. Iha Samsare Bahu Dustare Kripaya Pare Pahii Murare
( O Lord, the one who is the enemy of demons like Mura ; Have compassion on me.This worldly ocean of existence is extremely hard to cross over , Give me Your shelter .) - Mohamudgram, Adishankaracharya
2. tvadiyas tvad-bhrityas tava parijanas tvad-gatir aham
prapannas caivam sa tv aham api tavaivasmi hi bharah
(O Lord,You are the shelter of all universes . Though fallen ,but I am Your follower , a slave of Your lotus feet; O Lord ,the goal of my life is only You ,consider my surrender to You ; I am all dependent on Your Mercy) - Strota Ratna, Yamunnacharya
3.Agyani lokar Manya paya Garva Bahi goila
Langhiluhu tomar Agyaka
Dina Anthaka kripa Karaha Paramananda
Prabhu abe rakhiu amaka
(O ever blissful Lord ; Getting respect from the foolish people ,I have embraced pride and hence it has turned out to disrespect Your path of humbleness ! O ,Madhava ,Kindly save this fallen ,have Your mercy on me. ) - Vedastuti ,Srimanta Sankardeva
4. Namo Krsna-Deva Papi buli Kevo
muko mur nobolaya
Patiata Pavana Janiya Tomato
Apnui Goilu Bikraya
( O Lord Krsna , In this world ,nobody considers me as their beloved one as because I'm the fallen one ,but o Lord ,You are the ultimate shelter of all fallen ,hence I have sold myself only to You) - Namghosha,Madhavdeva
5. Asilasya va padrata pinastu mamah
Adarsana va marmahata karut mamah
yatha tatha bidadhatu lampatu mad prana nathastu sa eva natparo .
(O Lord Krishna ,one who is like a mischievous child ,if you want to give me misery of this world, or crush me under your feet ,or even if you have no wish to grant me Your Darsana,then also ,only You are my savior Lord. Whatever you grant is the way of my life.) - Sikshyastaka ,Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
6.Except You,o Lord ,the lifter of the Goverdhan hill - who has the feeling of consideration for me !The Lord ,who wears the yellow garment and has peacock feather on His crown ;He who once has saved queen Draupadi's honor, That Lord is Mira's Lord,She is a lover of His Lotus feet.O Lord ,deliver me . - Bhajan ,Mirabai
7. As long as one has the capability of earning wealth , he has the love of kinsman ,but once ,one is aged or diseased ,no one even utters a word of love or compassion to him.when he dies ,even his own wife fears his non-living body . - Mohamudgara,Adi Shankaracharya.
8. O Lord Madhava Krishna , Considering this worldly affairs as supreme happiness (boon),I have embraced attachment to non permanent things .O Lord deliver me , grant me your devotion of Sravana and Kirtana and through that O Narayana deliver me from the ties of material goals. - Bhavartha Dipika ,Book X , Sridhara Swami .
Saranagati is the only way ,the only answer to all threefold miseries ; The One who is beyond the prakirti gunas ,to Him only this loving surrender is possible . In The Rig veda, the very first verse denotes a lower stage of surrendering to God ,while in the fourth mandala ,the supreme surrender to Vishnu is mentioned, - Tad Vishnu Paramam padam sada pasyati surayah . In the Svetaswetar Upanisad ,this surrender to Him alone is denoted . As in the Gita - Sarva dharmana paritaijam mameikam saranam vraja O Arjuna , single mindedly surrender to Me alone , I will deliver you from all sinful actions .
