Bhajan Ka Saral Hindi Meaning
O my mind! Be bold and fearless. Swami Samarth ki apar shakti hai is behind you, so be afraid in vain. Swami Samarth is Avadhoot Swaroop and is considered to reach his devotees only through remembrance. By His grace even impossible tasks can be possible.
Where there is shelter of Swami Samarth's feet, there is no shortage of anything. Swami can also change the devotee's life and his destiny by His grace. Not even time or death can subjugate the devotee unless it is His will—these lines express the complete surrender and faith of the devotee towards Swami Samarth.
Leave fear and trust in Swami Samarth
The hymn gives the message to remove unnecessary fear from the mind of the devotee. The cycle of birth and death continues in life, but one who surrenders himself to the power of Lord, should replace fear with faith and courage.
“Ugachi bhitosi bhaya he palu de” ka bhava hai ki bina prada terte rahe ki nahi hai hai hai. One should try to feel the power of Swami within himself and maintain faith even in difficult situations.
The importance of faith
Shraddha is very important for Swami Bhakti in this Bhajan. It is not enough to call oneself a devotee, but it is necessary to have true faith and trust in the mind. A devotee should remember those occasions in his life when he got help, courage and guidance in difficult times.
The sentiment of “Nako Dagamgu Swami Ditil Haat” assures the devotee that in difficult times one should keep the mind steady remembering Swami Samarth and not despair.
The sentiment of “The Lord will make the impossible possible”
The most famous line of the hymn is “The Lord will make the impossible possible”. It means that the devotee should not give up on circumstances. Difficult situations can be faced with faith in God, courage, proper effort and positive attitude.

Swami Samarth and Panchamrit Ka Bhav
The last step mentions tools of devotion like Vibhuti, Naman, Naamsmaran, Meditation and Tirtha. In Bhajan, Swami Ko is considered to be the essence of this spiritual “Panchamrita”. Devotees are inspired to remember and realize Swami Samarth through these means.
There is a sense of complete surrender in the last lines—what the lord takes in his hands, he does not leave alone. It shows the unwavering faith and dedication of the devotee.
