न च प्राण संज्ञो न वै पञ्चवायुः
न वा सप्तधातुर् न वा पञ्चकोशः ।
न वाक्पाणिपादौ न चोपस्थपायू
चिदानन्दरूपः शिवोऽहम् शिवोऽहम् ॥ २ ॥
na cha prANa saMgyo na vai pancha vAyuH
na vai saptadhAtur na vai panchakoshaH.
na vAk pANi pAdau na chopastha pAyU
chidAnanda rUpaH shivo'ham shivo'ham. 2
I am neither to be understood as prana nor as the five kinds of breath,
nor the seven materials nor the five sheaths;
neither am I the organs of speech, elimination, motion, grasping, or procreation.
In the form of blissful consciousness, I am Shiva, I am Shiva.
