REQUEST : Shankara's Aatmashtakam
Hi Netters. I was trying to find information about the Aatmashtakam,
and would appreciate it if any of you can help me.
My query is as follows: All the copies of the Aatmashtakam (also
called, I believe, the Nirvanashtakam) I can find have six stanzas.
The version I have is from the ITRANS songbook, found at:
http://chandra.cis.brown.edu/isongs/sanskrit/sindex.html
Now, the "ashtakam" in the name seems to indicate that there are eight
stanzas. Is the name just misleading, or does the Aatmashtakam
really have eight stanzas? If it does have eight stanzas, then could
someone post this version?
thanks in advance,
