Atmashatkam

[山木]

The Atmashatkam (आत्मषट्कम्, ātmaṣaṭkam), also known as Nirvanashatkam (निर्वाणषट्कम्, Nirvāṇaṣaṭkam), is a composition consisting of 6 fold śloka (and hence the name Ṣaṭ-ka to mean six-fold) written by the Hindu philosopher Adi Shankara summarizing the basic
teachings of Advaita Vedanta, or the Hinduteachings of non-dualism.
It was written around 788-820 AD.
Atmashatkam ( आत्मषट्कम् , ātmaṣaṭkam )은  Nirvanashatkam (निर्वाणषट्कम्, Nirvāṇaṣaṭkam )으로도 알려진  여섯 단락으로 구성된 문장 
śloka 힌두 철학자 기록 (따라서 여섯 단락을 의미하는 이름 Ṣaṭ-ka) 샹 카라 Advaita Vedanta 의 기본 가르침 또는 비 이원론에 대한 힌두교 가르침을 요약합니다. 그것은 약 788-820 년경에 기록되었습니다.
 
It is said that when Ādi Śaṅkara was a young boy of eight and
wandering near River Narmada, seeking to find his guru,
he encountered the seer Govinda Bhagavatpada who asked him,
"Who are you?". The boy answered with these stanzas,
which are known as "Nirvāṇa Ṣaṭkam" or Ātma Ṣaṭkam".
Swami Govindapada accepted Ādi Śaṅkara as his disciple.
The verses are said to be valued to progress in contemplation
practices that lead to Self-Realization.

Ādi Śaṅkara가 여덟 살의 어린 소년이었을 때 나르마다 강 근처를 돌아다니며 자신의 스승을 찾으려고 할 때, 그는 고빈다 바가바트 파다 ( Govinda Bhagavatpada )라는 "당신은 누구입니까?"라고 묻는 선구자와 마주쳤다고 합니다. 그 소년은 "Nirvāṇa Ṣaṭkam"또는 "Ātma Ṣaṭkam"으로 알려진 분에게 이문구로 답했으며 스와미 고빈다 파다는 그의 제자로 Ādi
Śaṅkara를 받아들였습니다. 이 구절들은 자아실현으로 이끄는 명상 수행의 진보에 중요한 요소 여겨져 왔습니다.
 
"Nirvāṇa" is complete equanimity, peace, tranquility, freedom and joy. "Ātma" is the True Self.
"Nirvāṇa"니르바나는 완전한 평온, 평화, 평온, 자유와 기쁨입니다.
 "Ātma"아트마는 진정한 자아입니다.

I am not mind, nor intellect, nor ego, nor the reflections of inner self

bliss, the auspicious (Śivam), love and pure consciousness.
