Nilakantha chants in a saturday evening satsang the kirtan Sachara Chara Pari Purna Shivoham. A lovely vedantic hymn that explains our true nature: Absolute Existence, Absolute Bliss, Absolute Knowledge, Pure Consciousness, the stainless and guiltfree observer of All. I am one with the divine.
You can find it in the Yoga VidyaKirtan Songbook as No. To sing along is here the text:
Sacharā Chara Pari Pūrna Shivoham
Nityānanda Swarūpa ShivohamĀnandoham ĀnandohamĀnandam Brahm Ānandam
Sākshi Chaitanya Kutasthoham
Nityā Nitya Swarūpa Shivoham
This mantra"Sachara Chara Pari Purna Shivoham Nityananda Swarupa Shivoham" means: "I am purna, wealth, accomplishment with, from the transcendent" Shivoham: I am Shiva. "Shiva" means literally "the auspicious one". "Shiva" means, too, loving and kind. Deep inside I am - and everyone else - this auspicious, this Loving, the good and the transcendental. I am Nitya, the eternal.
