Gajananam bhut ganadi sevitam,
Kpittha jambuphal charu bhachhanam
Umasutam shokvinash karakam,
Namami vighneshwer pad pankjam
Ya Shrih swayam sukritinam bhavanesva Lakshmih
Papatmana kritdhiyam hridyeshu buddhih
Shraddha satam kuljan prabhvasth lajja
Tam twam natah sma paripalaya devi vishwamah

Lord Shiva said to him by pointing towards a worm that go to the worm and say “Shiva Shambho”. After doing this, worm died. Jnana yogi was surprised and said that how it became possible.
Lord Shiva smiled and again allowed him to do the same by pointing towards the butterfly. Jnana yogi went to the butterfly and said “Shiva Shambho”. Butterfly died too. Yogi was very surprised this time again. He said to the Lord Shiva that if this mantras does like this why would someone want to read it. Lord Shiva smiled again and said to the Yogi again to do the same by pointing towards a deer. Yogi uttered that no, I this time I would not kill the deer. Lord Shiva smile and said, don’t worry, do it again. Yogi went to the deer and said “Shiva Shambho” and deer died.
At once, a mother with his new born baby reached there to get blessings from Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva said to the jnana yogi that why you do not read the mantra on this child. He said no, I would not kill this child. But finally, he went to the child with anxiety and said “Shiva Shambho”. At once, child sat down and said that you uttered mantra at worm which got transformed to a butterfly. You uttered again that mantra at butterfly which got transformed to a deer.
