If I SAY I AM that I AM

Bloggers note: with transcript

 

 

 

This is a verbatim recording of a lecture i gave a  few weeks ago on the inner meaning of i am that i  

0:15

am in the third chapter of Exodus we read these  words i am the Lord thy God which have brought  

0:23

thee out of the land of Egypt out of the house of  bondage thou shalt have no other gods before me  

0:31

God said to Moses come now therefore and i  will send thee to Pharaoh that thou mayest  

0:37

bring forth my people the children of Israel  out of Egypt and Moses said unto God who am i  

0:45

that i should go into Pharaoh and that i should  bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt  

0:54

and Moses said unto God behold when i come  unto the children of Israel and shall say  

1:01

unto them the God of your fathers hath sent  me and they shall say to me what is his name  

1:11

what shall i say unto them and God said unto  Moses i am that i am and he said thus shalt  

1:23

thou say unto the children of Israel i am had sent  me unto you thus shalt thou say unto the children  

1:35

of Israel the Lord God of your fathers the God  of Isaac the god of Abraham and the god of Jacob  

1:44

had sent me unto you this is my name forever  and this is my memorial for all generations

1:57

when you say i am you are announcing the  presence of the living God within you

2:09

you are declaring yourself to be

2:13

i am that i am the word that indicates  that which you want to be that's what  

2:19

that which you would like to be and the  second i am means the answered prayer  

2:25

achievement fulfillment of your desire or  i dream or aspiration you do not repeat  

2:32

i am that i am part-like not at all but  you feel yourself to be what you long to be  

2:40

you get interested fascinated absorbed in your  ideal it begins to gel in your mind whatever is  

2:46

impressed in the subconscious is expressed  upon the screen of space then comes the cry  

2:50

of victory you see the wholeness the beauty  the perfection the thing you wanted to be  

2:57

you can say for example i am illumined i'm  inspired i'm divinely guided i made whole you  

3:05

can live in that atmosphere because whatever you  attach to i am you become whatever you attach to i  

3:12

am with feeling with understanding you will become  that very thing for example if you're looking for  

3:20

your true place in life this is a simple prayer  but it works in a magnificent wonderful way  

3:28

i have given it to many people throughout  the world do this say to yourself  

3:34

i am in my true place i am doing what i love  to do i'm divinely happy i'm divinely prospered

3:46

say that feeling lay knowingly and meaningfully  

3:50

and then the deeper mind will take  over and open up all doors for you  

3:55

your hidden talents will be revealed to you the  door will open up and you will find yourself in  

4:01

your true place meaning you will be expressing  yourself at your highest possible level  

4:09

i am means awareness being life principle  unconditioned consciousness the hindus use  

4:17

the Om AUM it's the same thing means being  life awareness unconditioned consciousness  

4:25

it means the limitless one it means the holy one  who inhabited the eternity whose name is perfect

4:33

you can say for your for example i am  whole i am perfect i am vital i am strong  

4:38

the bible says let the weak say i am  strong let the widow say it as well  

4:45

take your attention away from your problem whether  it's sickness lack limitation be it what it may  

4:52

focus your attention on your ideal your goal your  objective claim yourself to be what you long to be  

4:59

rejoice and feel it and then the old condition  will pass away and you will experience the joy  

5:08

of the answered prayer the bible says behold  i meaning the infinite make all things new

5:16

the bible says ye shall not need to fight in  this battle set yourself stand still and see  

5:26

the salvation of the lord the word salvation  is an old hindu term meaning solution to your  

5:34

problem the answer to your prayer it means  of course saved saved from what well you're  

5:42

saved from fear ignorance superstition you're  safe from sickness disease lacked limitation  

5:48

of all kinds why because you're aware of the god  presence within and your capacity to contact it  

5:54

and when you call upon it it answers you it will  be with you in trouble it will set you on high  

6:00

because you hath known its names names nature the  way it works behold i stand a knock at the door  

6:06

if any man will hear my voice and open the door  i will come in and suck with him and he with me  

6:11

the god presence is always knocking at the door  of your heart it's always seeking to express  

6:15

itself at higher levels through you you're the  channel of the divine and therefore you must  

6:21

listen to the murmurings and whisperings of your  heartstrings because god is forever saying to you  

6:25

come on up higher i have need of you at higher  levels therefore your desire is the gift of God  

6:32

the realization of your desires your  savior if you were lost in the woods  

6:37

divine guidance of the light of God would illumine  your pathway and reveal to you the way out  

6:42

if you're hungry food is your savior if you're  dying of thirst in the desert water is your savior  

6:48

if you're in prison freedom is your savior  if you're sick health is your savior  

6:54

so the answer is always within you and the saving  consciousness is within you because God indulge  

7:01

i rejoice the bible says in God my savior stand  still and see the salvation of the Lord meaning  

7:08

to quiet the wheels of your mind call upon this  infinite intelligence which responds to you  

7:14

if you ask for a fish it will not give  you a serpent if you ask for a bread it  

7:18

will not give you a stone meaning it  becomes the embodiment of your ideal

7:25

have a deep conviction that all is well in  spite of all the reasons why the condition  

7:31

seems to be impossible remain unmoved live in the  atmosphere of victory and victory will be yours  

7:41

having seen the end you have will the  means to the realization of the end  

7:46

contemplate the happy ending realize and know  that all the power of the godhead will flow  

7:50

that focal point of attention i am as pure  and conditioned being it is the creed of power  

7:56

it deals with the infinity of god  another way of explaining it is this  

8:01

i means the infinite a comes from ab meaning  the father and mem means the mother in other  

8:08

words the infinite is the father mother God the  male and female principle the ancient hebrew said  

8:16

that god in order to create divided himself into  two namely male and female then God conceived  

8:22

himself to be the sun the moon the stars he  believed himself to be man pictured himself as man  

8:28

and all these archetypes or patterns were given to  the female aspect of himself which is called the  

8:34

womb of god which created all things in sequence  and brought forth all things in this universe

8:43

all things are made that way there was  nothing made that is not made that way  

8:46

well you're created the same way you're  male and female too your conscious mind is  

8:50

the male your subconscious is the female and  whatever you impregnate or impress upon the  

8:55

subconscious or the female aspect of yourself the  subconscious brings forth good bad and different  

9:01

you may say i'm a man i'm an english-man i'm  a scotsman i'm an attorney i'm a doctor i'm  

9:06

a republican i'm a democrat these are facts about  yourself but there are limitations of the infinite  

9:12

one for god is limitless in other words you're  the conditioned state of the unconditioned being  

9:19

these states i just mentioned of  course are constructive expressions  

9:22

of the infinite but God is unlimited it is pure  and conditioned being it is the limitless one  

9:29

the holy one of Israel is called to say that  god is anything in particular implies limitation  

9:36

or circumscription God is infinite man is  something particular man is the individualization  

9:42

of God consciousness emerson said every  man is God walking the earth in other words  

9:48

god became man by believing himself  to be man so man is God in limitation  

9:55

and therefore you are born with certain  endowments certain talents and abilities  

9:59

you're unique there's no one in all the world  like you because you are you perhaps you're  

10:04

mechanically inclined perhaps you're musically  inclined perhaps you're spiritually inclined  

10:09

and so on we're all different there are no two  blades of grass alike no two crystals of snow  

10:14

and no two veins on a tree are alike you know  or two leaves either infinite differentiation  

10:20

is the law of life some men are tall some  are sharp some are very fat some are thin  

10:26

and some are born blind some are crippled and so  on and so we're all different we're all equal in  

10:32

the eyes of god but men are not equal in strength  or wisdom or understanding or anything else

10:41

now you can also do this you can attach negative  things to i am remember i want to stress this  

10:47

whatever you attach to i am with feeling you  become you can say i am dumb i am inferior  

10:55

i am rejected i'm no good i'm inferior i'm sick  i'm frustrated i'm lonesome i'm unhappy i'm poor  

11:04

all these things will come to pass as you continue  to reiterate them because they sink down from  

11:11

your conscious to your subconscious and just like  seeds they grow after their kind therefore be sure  

11:17

that you do not attach anything to i am that is  not noble God-like and dignified seek ye first  

11:24

the kingdom of god and his righteousness and all  things shall be added unto you what does that mean  

11:30

the kingdom of heaven or the kingdom of God  is within yourself it's your own consciousness  

11:35

it's your awareness of being it's the invisible  part of you it's your mind your consciousness  

11:40

your thoughts your imagination your feeling  your beliefs the invisible part of you  

11:45

your state of consciousness is what you  think and believe it's what you feel it is  

11:50

what you imagine yourself to be therefore  your state of conscience is whatever you  

11:57

think feel believe and give mental consent all  these things are dramatized on the screen of space  

12:05

your consciousness is the only god the only  creative power because the invisible part of  

12:09

you it's your thought and feeling which creates  your destiny these are elements of divinity  

12:15

and your consciousness your state  of consciousness the sum total of  

12:18

your conscious and subconscious  thinking feeling and believing

12:26

you first therefore go within your own  consciousness your own mind and there you claim  

12:30

to be what you want to be and that spirit within  you will honor validate and execute it go within  

12:37

shut the door of your senses pray to your  father which is in secret and the father's  

12:40

decreed of power it's the progenitor it's the  life principle within you it's the source of  

12:46

all things and the beginning was the word and  the word was with god and the word was God  

12:50

the word is the thought expressed you're told  the word it was God too because it's creative  

12:55

if you hypnotize a man and you put your finger  on his neck and say this is a red hot poker  

13:01

well he'll get a blister won't  he he'll desiccation separation  

13:05

and separation which of course are changes in the  autonomic nervous system you'll see a blister in  

13:12

other words the beginning and the end are the same  the thought and the manifestation are one-armed  

13:18

therefore thoughts are things and what you feel  you attract and what you imagine you become  

13:22

therefore of course whatever you want you go  to consciousness for it that's the meaning  

13:26

of seek yee first the kingdom of heaven and  the righteousness the right use of the law  

13:32

your concept of yourself determines your future

13:38

now your world is called good and  very good because it is the likeness  

13:45

the image and the likeness of the consciousness  which mean it for example the law of the Lord is  

13:50

perfect the law is always perfect because  if you're conscious of being one thing  

13:58

and then should you express something other than  what you claim and feel and believe to be true  

14:06

that would be a violation of the law it wouldn't  be good isn't it natural for an apple seed to  

14:11

become an apple tree seeds grow after their kind  therefore if you feel one thing in your heart and  

14:18

you express something else on the screen of  space that would be a violation of all being  

14:23

if a man is full of hatred resentment hostility  and ill will and so forth he certainly can't  

14:28

express love peace beauty joy or anything else in  his life these negative emotions get snarled up in  

14:35

the subconscious and being negative must have a  negative outlet the law is not being broken the  

14:42

law we said is always perfect it brings forth  the likeness of man's conception of himself  

14:49

all the divisions in the world are projections  of the one the beautiful and the good  

14:54

God commands himself to be the seeming  other for there is no other the absolute  

14:59

can contain within itself something which is not  itself otherwise it would not be the absolute  

15:04

the absolute comes from ab the father salvio erol  meaning that the whole world and everything you  

15:10

see comes out of the absolute comes  out of the one there's only the one

15:17

the ancient hebrews defined it this way  they say ever the same in my inmost being  

15:22

eternal absolutely one whole complete perfect  indivisible timeless shapeless and ageless  

15:29

without face form or figure the silent breathing  presence fixed in the hearts of all men  

15:37

i am the virgin snow and the mountaintop i am  the fruit in the valley depths i am the gold  

15:44

and the silver on the altars dedicated to the  Gods yea i am the mire left on the sandals by  

15:52

the faithful at the temple gates hear me and see  me in all o man of God and thou shalt see indeed

16:03

that is to say every single thing you see  is God made manifest god appearing as the  

16:08

sun the moon the stars the trees the mud the  earth and as every single thing that you see  

16:15

this is God becoming all these things for God  thinks as the upanishads said and worlds appear  

16:22

for example you can say i am announce the presence  of god whenever you say i am remember you are  

16:27

announcing the presence of the living god within  you the word is nigh in thy mouth and my heart are  

16:32

will and to do the people down through the ages  have looked for the holy grail they've looked for  

16:38

the lost word the philosopher's stone and all the  time the word is in their mouth a thousand times a  

16:44

day it's called i am announcing pure being the  reality of you the living spirit within you it  

16:52

was never born it will never die water wets it  not fire burns it not when blows are not away  

16:59

yes it is the reality of you it's a wonderful  thing to know it's a marvelous thing to realize  

17:06

the bible says happy is the man that condemneth  not himself and that which he allowed in other  

17:13

words stop condemning yourself realize that you  can now claim what you want to be you can claim  

17:19

that you know possess what you long to possess you  can now claim that you're doing what you long to  

17:25

do you can live in that mental atmosphere which  will gradually sink down by osmosis from your  

17:30

conscious to your subconscious gradually become a  conviction as you nourish it and sustain it then  

17:35

your limitation will disintegrate and you will  rise like the phoenix from the ashes of the old  

17:41

you'll become the new man because i must die to  what i am before i can live to what i long to be  

17:50

that's why Paul says i die daily you must die to  the belief in poverty and resurrect the belief in  

17:55

God's opulence die to the belief in sickness and  believe it's God's will for you that you'll be  

18:01

happy joyous and free vital and strong and claim  that the wholeness of God is flowing through you  

18:07

take your attention away from the multitude of  reasons why you can't achieve something and focus  

18:13

your attention on your ideal nourish and sustain  it and the answer will come keep on keeping on  

18:20

and the day will break and  all the shadows will flee away  

18:24

remember that god is a living  spirit within you movie is unity  

18:28

and God is all bliss all peace all harmony  all joy all love boundless wisdom infinite  

18:34

intelligence and absolute and indescribable beauty  God is called by many names allah brahma jehovah

18:44

and many other names there are 67 names for  example in the psalms given to God but they are  

18:49

deal with powers and attributes qualities  and potencies of God for God has no name

18:55

now you cannot contact the god presence within  if you're full of cruelty self-pity condemnation  

19:00

ill will no when you pray you're told forgive  if you ought against any that your heavenly  

19:07

father may forgive you if you come to the altar  to offer your gift doesn't the bible tell you  

19:14

if you have vote against your brother come and  make friends with your brother then come and offer  

19:19

your gift but your gift is your desire the altar  is your own mind where you walk and talk with God  

19:24

the only gift you can give God is praise and  thanksgiving come into his presence singing  

19:29

come into his courts with praise be thankful  unto him and bless his name but you must come  

19:35

as unspotted you know there must be no spot  in thee thou art all fear my love there is no  

19:40

spot on me for love is the fulfilling of the  law the law of health of happiness and peace  

19:46

therefore we go to God you must be full of love  and good will and love is an outreaching of the  

19:51

heart it's an emanation of good will it is wishing  for all men what you wish for yourself therefore  

19:57

you wish for those who hurt you love peace harmony  joy and all the blessings of life you know when  

20:03

you're forgiven because there is no sting in  your mind if you had an abscess a year ago  

20:09

it was very painful perhaps  maybe the doctor lanced it  

20:13

and the wound was very very painful perhaps you  remember there was excruciating pain but you have  

20:18

no pay now you have a memory but no sting that's  forgiveness if you heard of some marvelous news  

20:26

about someone who wronged you or cheated you or  swindled you or said unkind things about you or  

20:32

undermined you and i told you some marvelous and  wonderful news about that person and you sizzled  

20:38

it means the roots of hatred are still there in  your subconscious mind playing havoc with you  

20:43

because the healing power of God does not  flow through a contaminated consciousness  

20:49

no more so than the water flows through a sink  when the pipe is all stopped up perhaps the pipe  

20:54

is full of corrosion or rust or debris or sand or  something the plumber comes and removes it but the  

20:59

water was always waiting to flow through likewise  the healing power of God is within you you don't  

21:05

create it it's called the holy spirit the spirit  of wholeness and all diseases fragmentation  

21:10

separation from the divine therefore you must be  in a state of purity and wholeness when you go  

21:17

to God and that's love isn't it oh yes and then  you'll get an answer then the healing will come  

21:26

the bible says in the beginning god in  other words put God first in your life

21:33

do you put something before God do you say i'm too  busy are you saying you're too busy for God oh no  

21:40

you do not get power to any creative thing  you do not give power to sticks or stones  

21:45

or stars or suns our moons are men or conditions  or circumstances everything is subject to change  

21:50

the thinker is greater than the salt the artist  is greater than his ark and the creator is greater  

21:55

than his creation the scientific thinker does not  give power to any create a thing in this universe  

22:01

he does not give power to the phenomenalistic  world or anything they're in - contained  

22:05

he gives allegiance devotion and loyalty to the  i am within him the only presence the only power  

22:10

the only calls the only substance the minute you  give power to any other thing in the world you're  

22:16

practicing idolatry sometimes referred to in our  bible as adultery but these words are synonymous  

22:22

in other words you're cohabiting with  evil in the bed of your own mind.
