shribhagavan ne kaha-
hai mool oopar, shakh niche, patr jinake ved haian॥
ve vedavith jo janate ashvatth-avyay bhed haian॥1॥
pallav vishay, gun se pali adh-oordhv shakha chha rahian॥
nar-lok mean niche j dean, karmanubandhi ja rahian॥2॥
usaka yahaan milata svaroop, n adi madhyadhar se॥
dridhamool yah ashvatth kat asang shastr-prahar se॥3॥
phir vah nikalo dhooandhakar, pad shreshth thik prakar se॥
kar prapt jisako phir n laute, chhootakar sansar se॥
maian sharan usaki hooan, purush jo adi aur mahan hai॥
utpann jisase sab puratan, yah pravritti-vidhan hai॥4॥
jita jinhoanne sang-dosh, n moh jinamean man hai॥
man mean sada jinake jaga adhyatm-jnan pradhan hai॥
jinamean n koee kamana, sukh-duahkh aur n dvandv hi॥
avyay paramapad ko sada, jnani purush pate vahi॥5॥
