Hi, it's my first day here and just new reading your info as of yesterday, so I'm not sure how to conform to the rules so if I'm not abiding please inform me. Also, forming words into sentences isn't easy for me so am not sure how to do the 200 word thing so here goes....
This "I Am" issue has been a dead end because as I inquire i get that there is no I and no AM in which to have an I AM experience.
To whom has it arisen?
A Self who wants to perpetuate the duality with something in a bigger I, and a wider AM; as opposed to the little i of ego and the lesser aware experiences it creates.
It's a layer of belief of the Self that has graduated from ego? (that's not actually a question.)
So in essence i perceive the I AM as a further trick and trappery belief system to keep duality going but from a ''HIGHER'' b.s. perspective that comes off as more enlightened than the ego and still sought after to be attained.
There really is no I AM.... unless 'you' want there to be.
Are "you" wanting there to be? i am not wanting there to be. Are we one wanting the same thing? Clearly no. This is where my inquiry is using ''others'' as a sounding board to establish where this root duality is coming from and why?
This "I Am" creates another layer of ''experience'' with the "I AM" as the observer?? (that's a question with 2 question marks.)
who/what wants there to be an I AM and why?
for what purpose? Obviously to experience some I AM'ness stuff.
Is that I AMness stuff more duality? Is it better daulity? A better dual game? Or in it does it imply that somehow the I AM will bring the dual back into focus of one through going out into a dual sense of I AM something?
If so why choose this game?
The I am as all of it and none of it is further playtime. Then why perpetuate the illusion of it as I am?
Is this more internal/external ideas fun game play dreamtime?
