Advaitha Pancharathnam by Sri Adishankaracharya – Lyrics & meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||




|| Shankara ||











Oh! Mortals, The ‘I’ concept does not represents body, or Indhriyas/sense organs, or Antharangam/mind, or Ahangara/ego or Pranavayu/air for breath, or intelligence, or wife, or children, or wealth or assets.  Therefore ‘I’ is beyond the above mentioned things, it is eternal and witnesses everything, it is known as ‘Soul’/Antharathma, which is Lord Shiva.   It is a misconception of an unwise to consider Athman as Jeeva, same as misinterpretation of a rope into serpent without realizing the fact, in this way after attaining refined knowledge from the preceptor we will understand the truth that Athma is not Jeeva, it is none other than Lord Shiva.  Athman is absolute truth, super intellect and eternal bliss, but due to the existence of illusion it gives out the appearance of transient world, same as the state of dream while asleep, therefore one should not misinterpret Athman as world, but it is unblemished, ideal and eternal Lord Shiva.  There is no birth for ‘I”, it has no growth or destruction, all the daily routines are predetermined to body.  Therefore the Athman which is the symbol of supreme intelligence has no state of Karththa/doer, only the inconsiderate will get the wrong idea about it, therefore the Athman is none other than Lord Shiva.  There is nothing exists other than Athman, if so then it is illusion.  All that we are seeing due to the presence of illusion, same as mirror image of a person, therefore ‘I’ concept is nothing other than supreme Lord Shiva.
