520 _aThis profound spiritual poetic composition is renowned by its glorious name 'Atmasiddhi Shastra'. 'Atma' means soul and 'Siddhi' means establishment or accomplishment. In this composition, Shrimadji has established the truth of the soul by describing the six fundamentals through pure strength of logic and reasoning. Upon contemplating and internalising it, the true seeker is certain to attain self-realisation. Hence the word, 'Atmasiddhi'. In the past hundreds of years, several texts with the word 'siddhi' have been written, in Jain and non-Jain traditions, to establish their viewpoints and opinions. Sarvarthsiddhi, Anekantsiddhi, Siddhivinishchay, Sarvajnasiddhi, etc., have been written in the Jain tradition, whereas Brahmasiddhi, Advaitsiddhi, etc., are well-known Vedant texts. This composition has been given the status of a shastra -scripture. In Sanskrit, the word 'shastra' is derived as Shasanat Shastram - that which disciplines is called a shastra. It either inspires one to engage in a pursuit or it directs one to refrain from doing something. This supremely beneficial composition provides guidance, inspiration and impetus for spiritual progress. It propounds and encourages one to tread the sacred path of liberation. Hence, it is rightly called shastra. Thus, the title 'Atmasiddhi Shastra' is perfectly apt.
