Śataślokī (A Hundred Verses)
शतश्लोकी (Śataślokī)

A poem of one hundred stanzas setting out Advaita doctrine through images: dream and waking, the rope mistaken for a snake, the sun reflected in water. It deals with the Self as witness, the illusion of the world, karma and liberation, and was also known as "The Lion of Vedanta".
