Beginning

śrīgaṇeśāya namaḥ ||

apārasaṃsārasamudramadhye

nimajjato me śaraṇaṃ kim asti ||

guro kṛpālo kṛpayā tadaitad

viśveśapādāṃbujadīrghanaukā || 1 ||

baṃdho hi ko yo viṣayānurāgaḥ

kā vā vimuktir viṣaye viraktiḥ ||

ko vāsti ghoro narakaḥ svadehe

tṛṣṇākṣayaḥ svargapadaṃ kim asti || 2 ||

saṃsāradṛk kaḥ śrutaātmabodhaḥ

ko mokṣahetuḥ prathitas sa eva ||

dvāraṃ kim ekaṃ narakasya nārī

kā svargadā prā[ṇa]ṇabhṛtām ahiṃsā || 3 || (fol. 1r1–4)
