It is there on its own without any adjuncts; delve
deep into your being and just cut away all the addons
to the ‘I am’. If done deftly you will perceive
the ‘I am’ in its glorious purity. Now stay here and
become one with it. The ‘I am’ should completely
engulf you at all times. Then you will know that
there is someone in you that understands this
knowledge ‘I am’, is a witness to it and never had
anything to with it either.

as oneself, and with full conviction and
faith firmly believe in the dictum ‘I am
that by which I know I am’.
After fully understanding the ‘I am’, firstly, you
have to accept that you are the knowledge ‘I am’ in
its totality. When this acceptance comes through
your practice, what will happen? You will no
longer be an individual, the personality will be
gone. Now you will have reached the highest you
possibly can. Secondly, remaining in this highest
possible state of knowing that ‘I am’, you will
realize that there is someone who knows the ‘I am’.
Till this realization comes you should at least
firmly believe in the dictum ‘I am that by which I
know I am’.
