You are beginning to understand this very sacred of concepts, the I AM. When you truly and fully understand yourself as I AM, then you will know that there is nothing but the "I" that sees all, knows all, is all. This is not you. Do not get hung up on your pronouns. Feel this sense of "I" as the one "I" that has no other behind it. Yes, the all-knowing, all-seeing "I" … the First Cause with all others—all of the little "i's"—being but manifestations of the one I AM.
Once this understanding begins to set in, we ask you to look upon others and see the Great I AM within them. Say not, "That is John and that is Mary." Say instead, "That is 'I'." Do you feel how you rebel? This is because your language pulls you to that place of thinking of the "i" as the ego. Of course you are not John and you are not Mary. But you are an experience of "I," as is John and as is Mary. Set ego aside and see the Great "I" within John and Mary. Feel "I" as the essence of all beings.
Does not John feel the vastness of the "I" within? Does not Mary? The "I" is all that is. Now try again. "I AM That." Look upon John and Mary now and see "I." Say, "I AM That." Now do you understand that what you do and say or do not do and say to another you do unto your Self?
Namaste.
