I am He 🌹☘️🙏


By Adi Shankaracharya


Mind, nor intellect, nor ego, feeling;

Sky nor earth nor metals am I.


I am He, I am He, Blessed spirit, I am He!


No birth, no death, no caste have I;

Father, mother, have I none.


I am He, I am He, Blessed spirit, I am He!


Beyond the flights of fancy, formless am I,

Permeating the limbs of all life;

Bondage I do not fear; I am free, ever free.


I am He, I am He, Blessed spirit, I am He
