ন্যায, সাঙ্খ্য, পাতঞ্জল, মীমাংসা-দর্শন বৈশেষিক, বেদান্তে নিপুণ যত জন হেন জন না দেখিলুঙ্ সংসার-ভিতরে জিনিতে কি দায, মোর সনে কক্ষা করে! ॥ ১১৯-১২০ ॥
न्याय, साङ्ख्य, पातञ्जल, मीमांसा-दर्शन वैशेषिक, वेदान्ते निपुण यत जन हेन जन ना देखिलुङ् संसार-भितरे जिनिते कि दाय, मोर सने कक्षा करे! ॥ ११९-१२० ॥
nyāya, sāṅkhya, pātañjala, mīmāṃsā-darśana vaiśeṣika, vedānte nipuṇa yata jana hena jana nā dekhiluṅ saṃsāra-bhitare jinite ki dāya, mora sane kakṣā kare! || 119-120 ||

“I have met scholars who were expert in the six branches of philosophy, and what to speak of defeating me, they did not even try to enter into debate with me.”
