-

Mano budhyahankara chithaa ninaham,

Na cha srothra jihwe na cha graana nethrer,

Na cha vyoma bhoomir na thejo na vayu,

Chidananada Roopa Shivoham, Shivoham.

- Neither am I mind, nor intelligence ,

Nor ego, nor thought,

Nor am I ears or the tongue or the nose or the eyes,

Nor am I earth or sky or air or the light,

I am Shiva, I am Shiva, of nature knowledge and bliss

-

Na cha praana sangno na vai pancha vaayuh,

Na vaa saptha dhathur na va pancha kosa,

Na vak pani padam na chopastha payu,

Chidananada Roopa Shivoham, Shivoham.

-

Neither am I the movement due to life,

Nor am I the five airs, nor am I the seven elements,

Nor am I the five internal organs,

Nor am I voice or hands or feet or other organs,

I am Shiva, I am Shiva, of nature knowledge and bliss

-

Na me dwesha raghou na me lobha mohou,

Madho naiva me naiva matsarya bhava,

Na dharmo na cha artha na kamo na moksha,

Chidananada Roopa Shivoham, Shivoham.

-

I never do have enmity or friendship,

Neither do I have vigour nor feeling of competition,

Neither do I have assets, or money or passion or salvation,

I am Shiva, I am Shiva, of nature knowledge and bliss

-

Na punyam na paapam na soukhyam na dukham,

Na manthro na theertham na veda na yagna,

Aham bhojanam naiva bhojyam na bhoktha,

Chidananada Roopa Shivoham, Shivoham.

-

Never do I have good deeds or sins or pleasure or sorrow,

Neither do I have holy chants or holy water or holy books or fire sacrifice,

I am neither food or the consumer who consumes food,

I am Shiva, I am Shiva, of nature knowledge and bliss

-

Na mruthyur na sankha na me jathi bhedha,

Pitha naiva me naiva matha na janma,

Na bhandhur na mithram gurur naiva sishyah,

Chidananada Roopa Shivoham, Shivoham.

-

I do not have death or doubts or distinction of caste,

I do not have either father or mother or even birth,

And I do not have relations or friends or teacher or students,

I am Shiva, I am Shiva, of nature knowledge and bliss

-

Aham nirvi kalpo nirakara roopo,

Vibhuthwascha sarvathra sarvendriyanaam,

Na chaa sangatham naiva mukthir na meyah

Chidananada Roopa Shivoham, Shivoham.

-

I am one without doubts , I am without form,

Due to knowledge I do not have any relation with my organs,

And I am always redeemed,

I am Shiva, I am Shiva, of nature knowledge and bliss
