I am neither the mind, nor the intellect, nor the ego, nor the mind-stuf;
I am neither the body, nor the changes of body;
I am neither the senses of hearing, taste, smell, or sight, nor am I the ether, the earth, the fire, the air;
I am Existence absolute, knowledge absolute, knowledge bsolute, bliss absolute; I am He, I am He.(Shivoham, Shivoham).
Stanza 2:
न च प्राणसंज्ञो न वै पञ्चवायुः
न वा सप्तधातुः न वा पञ्चकोशः ।
न वाक्पाणिपादं न चोपस्थपायु
चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥२॥

I am neither the Prana, nor the five vital airs;

I am existence absolute, knowledge absolute, bliss absolute; I am he, I am he.(Shivoham, Shivoham).
