The complete 'I am' quotes of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj Pradeep Apte

knowledge ‘I am’ transcends the experience of death and attains
immortality.
308
Once you subside into the consciousness, the factual state of
Reality shall be revealed to you with the knowledge that will
emanate out of you intuitively, like spring water. This will enable
you to discern not what is real and unreal, but, most importantly, to
realize what ‘I am’. And who could be that one? Surely not an
individual who is trapped in the mind-shell, but that one is the
knowledge ‘I am’ – the consciousness.
309
Consciousness is the sense of knowingness ‘I am’ without words,
and it appeared unknowingly and unsolicited. Only in the realm of
knowingness ‘I am’ – the consciousness – can a world be, and so
also an experience. Hold on to this knowingness ‘I am’ and the
fount of knowledge will well up within you, revealing the mystery
of the Universe; of your body and psyche; of the play of the five
elements, the three ‘gunas’ and ‘prakriti-purusha’; and of
everything else. In the process of this revelation, your
individualistic personality confined to the body shall expand into
the manifested universe, and it will be realized that you permeate
and embrace the entire cosmos as your ‘body’ only. This is known
as the ‘Pure Super-knowledge’ – ‘Shuddhavijnana’.

Now coming to a very subtle situation, what is it in you that
understands this knowledge ‘you are’ – or from your standpoint ‘I
am’ without a name, title or word? Subside in that innermost center
and witness the knowledge ‘I am’ and ‘just be’; this is the bliss of
being – the ‘swarupananda’.
