The summary of non-dualistic philosophy- Atma-Shatakam

According to the legends, Ādi Śankarācārya, at a young age of eight years,  traveled towards North India from Kerala in search of his guru. While wandering in the Himalayas, seeking to find his guru, he encountered a sage who asked him, "Who are you?” He replied with an extempore Composition (the Atma-Shatakam) that brought out the Advaita Vedanta philosophy – the essence of which is that "Nirvana" is complete equanimity, peace, tranquility, freedom and joy. "Atma" is the True Self.  The sage the boy was talking to was Swami Govindapada Acharya, who was, indeed, the teacher he was looking for.
