Famous NIRVANA STOTRAM (Shivoham) Morning SHIVA Chants for Inner Peace and Proseperity in life
Here we introduce our “Chants to Sing Along“ series! To begin with, Shivoham Shivoham, the Nirvana Shatakam Mantra, performed and recorded live by Meditative India.
Nirvana Shatakam Mantra (stotram) was written by Adi Shankaracharya. It is believed to be one of the most effective and powerful Mantras you can chant to attain inner peace and salvation.
This Mantra is the result of an anecdote when Adi Shankara was asked ‘who are you?’
To this, he replied in a poetic form that culminated in this Mantra. He said that is Shivoham, which translates to ‘The Ultimate Truth’.
