१५. दर्शनपाठ प्रभु पतितपावन मैं अपावन,
चरण आयो शरण जी । यों विरद आप निहार स्वामी,
भेट जामन मरन जी । तुम ना पिछान्या आन मान्या,
देव विविध प्रकार जी। या बुद्धिसेती निज न जान्यो,
भ्रम गिन्यो हितकार जी ॥१॥ भव विकट वन में करम बैरी,
ज्ञानधन मेरी हरयो । तब इष्ट भूल्यो भ्रष्ट होय,
अनिष्ट गति धरतो फिरयो । धन घड़ी यो धन विवस यो ही,
धन्य जनम मेरो भयो । अब भाग मेरो उदय आयो,
दरश प्रभुको लख लयो ॥२॥ छबि वीतरागी नगन मुद्रा,
दृष्टि नासाथै धरे । वसु प्रातिहार्य अनन्त गुण जुत,
कोटि रवि छबि को हरे । मिट गयो तिमिर मिथ्यात्व मेरो,
उवय रवि आतम भयो । मो उरप हरष ऐसो भयो,
मनु रंक चिंतामणि लयो ॥३॥ में हाथ जोड़ नवाऊँ मस्तक,
बिनऊँ तुम चरन जी । सर्वोत्कृष्ट त्रिलोकपति जिन,
सुनहु तारन तरन जी। जाचूं नही सुरवास पुनि,
नरराज परिजन साथ जी। 'बुध' जाचूं तुव भक्ति भव भव,
दीजीये शिवनाथजी ॥४॥

15. Darsanapa Darshan Path is usually sung while performing the darshan of Bhagavāna. In general a person looks back on all the false beliefs he/she was following blindly and on all of his/her accumulating karmas. Now having realized the right path, the person prays for forgiveness and guidance from Bhagavāna. The following is the meaning of the prayer. O Lord ! I pray to you to gather the strengh, the knowledge, and the energy to shed my karmas and help me get rid of this cycle of birth and death. O Lord ! all this time, I have been ignorant by not recognizing your virtues and I worshipped other gods. Ignorantly, I always thought what little knowledge ! had was sufficient. (1) This sensual and materialistic world has put a vell over my true perceptions. Because of this lack of knowledge. I have forgotten my true self, and I am wandering in this painful cycle of many births and deaths. This moment is blissful this day is blissful and so is my birth, because I feel forunate enough to be one with you. (2) O Lord ! You have rid yourself of all worldly attachments; your eyes are focused in meditative posture; your body is in its purest form, where it is covered by nothing but the four directions, you are adorned by eight Prātihāryas. You have an infinite amount of good qualities contained wihtin you. Even the brightness of millions of sun is not comparable to your radiant face. O Lord ! just by your mere glimpse, my dark cloud of frisehood has vanished and the brightness of right knowledge has appeared. I have never felt so blissful before; I am but a beggar that has acquired an invaluable jewel. (3) O Lord! I bow to you because you are the greatest. I bow to you as the supreme lord of the three worlds. You have stopped the cycle of the birth and death forever, and you are the one who has given me the right knowledge to do the same. O Lord! I do not ask for heavenly abode, kingdom or family, nor do I ask for any worldly pleasures. The poet 'Budhjan' and I pray to become your devotee in all future lives until I get liberated. (4)
