Atmashatkam, Nirvanashatkam with Bengali Lyrics(আত্মষট্কম্, নির্বাণষট্কম্ ) Easy Recitation Series

The Atmashatkam (आत्मषट्कम्, ātmaṣaṭkam), also known as Nirvanashatkam (निर्वाणषट्कम्, Nirvāṇaṣaṭkam),is a composition consisting of 6 fold śloka written around 788-820 AD by the Great philosopher Adi Shankaracharya. This is one of the rare stotras written by Adi Sankara Bhagawat Pada identifying himself the Lord Shiva and clearly explaining his theory of non-dualism.
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 Govindapada 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.
