That perfectly pure Sahaja is in everything
and with that Sahaja all religious people gather together.
Sankara began his sadhana in this Sahaja,
Sukdeva, Sanaka and others also followed this Sahaja way.
Devotees like Sojha, Pipa, Sena and Dhana
all have drunk of this Sahaja-bliss in the natural way.
Raidas was also a sadhaka of Sahaja,
and Guru Dadu also realised infinite bliss in this Sahaja path.
Notes:
Sundardas (1596-1689) was a disciple of the Rajasthani saint, Dadu Dayal. His writings, along with Dadu’s songs and sayings, became the core of the Dadu-panth’s teachings.
Sukadev, the son of Vyas, and Sanaka were semi-mythical sages from before the Kali yuga period. Several earlier Rajasthani saints are mentioned: Sojha was a householder who, along with his wife Sojhi, abandoned their children to become ascetics; King Pipaji (1383-1453) gave up his throne to follow a religious life; Sena (or Sai’n)(c.1500) was a barber in the court of the Bandhogarh king Rajaram who became the king’s guru. Raidas (or Ravidas) (c.1450-1525), was a disciple of Ramanand, and a close associate of Kabir.

Dadu
Where there is no two, there is Sahaja, there joy and sorrow become one.
Sahaj neither lives nor dies; it is the state of complete nirvana ...
Amidst all duality hold your consciousness in the vacuity of Sahaja,
and drink nectar when you have attained the final state of arrest
and then there is no fear of death or of the flux of time.
Dadu Dayal (1544-1603), Rajasthan
