Shukashtakam is a profound octet composed by the narrator of the Shrimad-bhagavatam, Shri Shuka Maharshi, son of Shri Veda Vyasa, verily describing the state of an Enlightened One.
In just eight delightful verses that end with the refrain “nistraigunye pathi vicaratah ko vidhih ko nishedhah,” Shri Shuka Maharshi reveals the nature of the ultimate Reality even while declaring the utter freedom enjoyed by the Man of Realization.
The additional ninth verse gives the promise of Liberation for any seeker who makes a devoted perusal of this octet every day. An insight into this composition will enhance a seeker’s spiritual pursuit and assimilation of the precepts of Advaita-vedanta.
