    Na Cha Vyoma Bhumir Na Tejo Na Vayuh, Chidananda Rupah Shivoham Shivoham

    I am not mind, nor intellect, nor ego, nor the reflections of inner self. I am not the five senses. I am
    beyond that. I am not the ether, nor the earth, nor the fire, nor the wind (i.e. the five elements). I am
    indeed, That eternal knowing and bliss, Shiva, love and pure consciousness.

    Na Cha Praana Sanjno Na Vai Pancha Vaayuhu, Na Vaa Sapta Dhaatur Na Va Pancha Koshah

    Neither can I be termed as energy (Praana), nor five types of breath (Vaayu), nor the seven material
    essences (dhaatu), nor the five coverings (panca-kosha). Neither am I the five instruments of
    elimination, procreation, motion, grasping, or speaking. I am indeed, That eternal knowing and bliss,
    Shiva, love and pure consciousness.

    Na Me Dvesha Raagau Na Me Lobha Mohau, Mado Naiva Me Naiva Maatsarya Bhaavah

    I have no hatred or dislike, nor affiliation or liking, nor greed, nor delusion, nor pride or haughtiness,
    nor feelings of envy or jealousy. I have no duty (dharma), nor any money, nor any desire (refer: kama),
    nor even liberation (refer: moksha). I am indeed, That eternal knowing and bliss, Shiva, love and pure
    consciousness.

    Na Punyan Na Paapan Na Saukhyan Na Dukham, Na Mantro Na Tirthan Na Vedaah Na Yajnaah

    I have neither virtue (punya), nor vice (paapa). I do not commit sins or good deeds, nor have happiness
    or sorrow, pain or pleasure. I do not need mantras, holy places, scriptures, rituals or sacrifices (yajna).
    I am none of the triad of the observer or one who experiences, the process of observing or
    NIRVAN SHATAKAM BY ADI SHAKARACHARYA
    experiencing, or any object being observed or experienced. I am indeed, That eternal knowing and
    bliss, Shiva, love and pure consciousness.

    Na Mrityur Na Shanka Na Me Jaati Bhedah, Pitaa Naiva Me Naiva Maataa Na Janma


    Na Bandhur Na Mitram Guru Naiva Shishyah, Chidaananda Rupah Shivoham Shivoham

    I do not have fear of death, as I do not have death. I have no separation from my true self, no doubt
    about my existence, nor have I discrimination on the basis of birth. I have no father or mother, nor did
    I have a birth. I am not the relative, nor the friend, nor the guru, nor the disciple. I am indeed, That
    eternal knowing and bliss, Shiva, love and pure consciousness.

    Aham Nirvikalpo Niraakaara Rupo, Vibhutvaaccha Sarvatra Sarvendriyaanaam


    Na Chaa Sangatan Naiva Muktir Na meyah Chidananda Rupah Shivoham Shivoham

    I am all pervasive. I am without any attributes, and without any form. I have neither attachment to
    the world, nor to liberation. I have no wishes for anything because I am everything, everywhere, every
    time, always in equilibrium. I am indeed, That eternal knowing and bliss, Shiva, love and pure
    consciousness.
