Śri Śaṅkarāchārya's Ātma-Bodha: Self-Realization

By Alois Heinrich and Prof Ravi Prakash Arya

The Ātma Bodha, as its name suggests, presents a straightforward approach to self-realization. The book's authorship is attributed to Ādi Śaṅkarāchārya. However, a comparison of the Sanskrit of Prasthāna Trayī with the Ātma Bodha reveals no evidence that this concise treatise was also authored by Ādi Śaṅkarāchārya. It must have been written by some later Śaṅkarāchārya. The book comprises 68 verses that address the identities of individuals who can attain self-realization. Overall, the book is quite engaging and elucidates numerous concepts of Vedantic philosophy in accessible terms.
