The ''Atmashatkam'' (, ), also known as ''Nirvanashatkam '' (निर्वाणषट्कम्, ), is a śloka in six stanzas written by the Hindu philosopher Adi Shankara summarizing the basic teachings of Advaita Vedanta, or the Hindu teachings of non-dualism. It was written around 788-820 CE. The speaker of the poem is nominally the god Shiva, but it is generally seen as a statement by a knowing person of identity with Shiva or ''Brahman''. The speaker lists in the earlier verses what he (or ''Brahman'') is not. He is not body or mind, nor the things that attach them to each other and to the world, including the intellect, the senses, the practices of life, the occurrences of life such as birth and death. In the last verse he says that he permeates the universe, and that he is consciousness, bliss and the soul, and by implication, the ''Atman'' and ''Brahman''.〔http://www.svbf.org/journal/vol2no4/nirvana.pdf〕 It is said that that when Adi Shankara was a young boy of eight and wandering near River Narmada, seeking to find his guru, he encountered the seer Gaudapada who asked him, "Who are you?". The boy answered with these stanzas, which are known as "Nirvāṇa Śaṭkam" or Ātma Ṣaṭkam". Gaudapada accepted Adi Shankara as his disciple. The verses are said to be valued to progress in contemplation practices that lead to Self-Realization. "Nirvāṇa" is complete equanimity, peace, tranquility, freedom and joy. "Ātma" is the True Self. ==Sanskrit== Transliteration in IAST format. :''manobuddhyahaṅkāra cittāni nāhaṃ :''na ca śrotrajihve na ca ghrāṇanetre :''na ca vyoma bhūmir na tejo na vāyuḥ :''cidānandarūpaḥ śivo'ham śivo'ham (Devanagari: ) :''na ca prāṇasaṅjño na vai pañcavāyuḥ :''na vā saptadhātur na vā pañcakośaḥ :''na vākpāṇipādaṃ na copasthapāyu :''cidānandarūpaḥ śivo'ham śivo'ham (Devanagari:) :''na me dveşarāgau na me lobhamohau :''mado naiva me naiva mātsaryabhāvaḥ :''na dharmo na cārtho na kāmo na mokşaḥ :''cidānandarūpaḥ śivo'ham śivo'ham (Devanagari:) :''na puṇyaṃ na pāpaṃ na saukhyaṃ na duhkhaṃ :''na mantro na tīrthaṃ na vedā na yajña :''ahaṃ bhojanaṃ naiva bhojyaṃ na bhoktā :''cidānandarūpaḥ śivo'ham śivo'ham (Devanagari:) :''na me mṛtyuśaṅkā na me jātibhedaḥ :''pitā naiva me naiva mātā na janmaḥ :''na bandhur na mitraṃ gurunaiva śişyaḥ :''cidānandarūpaḥ śivo'ham śivo'ham (Devanagari:) :''ahaṃ nirvikalpo nirākāra rūpo :''vibhutvā ca sarvatra sarvendriyāṇaṃ :''na cāsangata naiva muktir na meyaḥ :''cidānandarūpaḥ śivo'ham śivo'ham (Devanagari:) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Atma Shatkam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
