I like this

This is taken from the orkut profile of Mr. Aakanksh Vashishth,who was 3 years my senior in school and has been a profound influece in my life-one of the first men to introduce me to the art of asking questions.

न पुण्यं न पापं न सौख्यं न दुःखं न मन्त्रो न तीर्थो न वेदा न यग्य ।
अहं भोजनं नैव बोज्यं न भोक्ता चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥

Sin or merit can never touch me, Joy and sorrow can't contaminate me;
I know no mantra, I have no sacred pilgrimage to make,
I know no scripture, nor have I anything to gain through rituals;
I am neither the experiencer (subject), nor the experienced (object), nor the experiencing;
I am Shiva the all pervading happiness, Yes, I am indeed, I am definitely Shiva.


न मे द्वेषरागौ न मे लोभमोहौ मदो नैव मे नैव मात्सर्यभावः ।
न धर्मो न चार्थो न कामो न मोक्षः चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥

I've no likes or dislikes, Nor I've covetousness or greed,
Nor I've arrogance nor any competition with anyone;
I don't even need the four 'Purposes of Life' (Dharm, Arth, Kaam, Moksh);
I am Shiva the all pervading happiness, Yes, I am indeed, I am definitely Shiva.


न मे मृत्युशंका न मे जातिभेदः पिता नैव माता नैव न जन्मः ।
न बन्धुर्न मित्रं गुरुर्नैव शिष्यः चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥

I've no death, no caste or creed distiction;
I've neither father nor mother; infact I am never even born!
I've no kith or kin, I've no teacher, nor am I a disciple;
I am Shiva the all pervading happiness, Yes, I am indeed, I am definitely Shiva.

Dunno whether I agree fully or not,but sounds good.
