Sri Swami Adi Shankaracharya's Dakshinamurthy Stotra- 1 :


Vishvam Darpanna-Drshyamaana-Nagarii-Tulyam Nija-Antargatam

 Pashyann-Aatmani Maayayaa Bahir-Ivo[a-U]dbhuutam Yathaa Nidrayaa |

 Yah Saakssaat-Kurute Prabodha-Samaye Sva-[A]atmaanam-Eva-Advayam

 Tasmai Shrii-Guru-Muurtaye Nama Idam Shrii-Dakssinnaamuurtaye ||1||


 Meaning:


 (Salutations to Sri Dakshinamurthy Who Awakens the Glory of the Atman within us through His Profound Silence)


 The Entire World is Like a City Seen within a Mirror, the Seeing happening within One's Own Being,

 It is a Witnessing happening within the Atman, (the Witnessing) of the Externally Projected World;

Projected by the Power of Maya;

As if a Dream in Sleep,

One Experiences this Directly (this Play of Maya) during Spiritual Awakening within the Non-Dual Expanse of One's Own Atman,

Salutations to Him, the Personification of Our Inner Guru Who Awakens This Knowledge through His Profound Silence; Salutation to Sri Dakshinamurthy.

Sri Ramakrishna
