DESCRIPTION:
Hastamalakiyam is a work of twelve meditative verses written by one of Ădi Shankaracharya’s four primary disciples. These profound verses are said to be a young boy’s response to Shankaracharya’s question “Who are you?” upon their first meeting. The reply revealed that the nature of the self as unfolded in the Upanishads was indeed the boy’s own living reality. He was therefore given the name Hastamalaka, meaning one whose vision of the truth is seen as clearly as a piece of fruit in the palm of one’s hand. This vision shines clearly through these verses.
