About this stotra

Nirguna Manasa Puja is a profound dialogue hymn attributed to Sri Adi Shankaracharya. A disciple asks how worship is possible when the Lord is undivided bliss, without qualities, and non-dual. The Guru's answers unfold in the verses that follow.

This edition presents the first five verses: the disciple's questions alone. They prepare the ground for the Guru's teaching on worshipping the Self through inner offering.
