एष पद्मात्ततो जज्ञे पुत्रोऽहं हेमगर्भकः ॥ चतुर्मुखो रक्तवर्णस्त्रिपुड्रांकितमस्तकः ॥ ६ ॥
Thus it was that I came to be known as Lotus-born and conceived in a golden womb. I had four faces, red complexion and Tripuṇḍra-marked forehead.

तन्मायामोहितश्चाहं नाविदं कमल विना ॥ स्वदेहजनकं तात पितरं ज्ञानदुर्बलः ॥ ७ ॥
Deluded by His illusion and weakened in knowledge, O dear one, I did not know who the progenitor of my body was, other than the lotus.

कोहं वा कुत आयातः किं कार्य तु मदीयकम् ॥ कस्य पुत्रोऽहमुत्पन्नः केनैव निर्मितोऽधुना ॥ ८ ॥
“Who am I? Whence did I come? What is my duty? To whom was I born a son? By whom have I been created?”
english translation
इति संशयमापन्नं बुद्धिर्मां समपद्यत ॥ किमर्थं मोहमायामि तज्ज्ञानं सुकरं खलु ॥ ९ ॥
Thus, my mind became filled with doubt. Why do I fall into delusion? That knowledge is indeed easily attainable.

एतत्कमलपुष्पस्य पत्रारोहस्थलं ह्यधः ॥ मत्कर्ता च स वै तत्र भविष्यति न संशयः ॥2-1-7-१०॥
This (place) is the lower surface of the petal of a lotus flower. The one who created me will certainly be there—there is no doubt about it.
