Trace back your memory to your elementary English grammar class when we learned the verb “to be”. Have you ever imagined that it contains the wisdom of ancient teachings waiting to be revealed? In present tense, the words “I am” implies being. The profound meaning might lie clandestinely, holding the key to our primordial presence; but this being-ness is never away from all our experiences. All experiences that are subsequently derived from “I am” also make us believe that we are the experiencers who know and are aware. In fact, everything (and literally everything) is derived from this awareness before we objectify our world through expression and manifestation. Awareness is the essence of consciousness and consciousness is all there is in the entire universe and beyond, both form and formless. It follows to say that when we can stay and abide in the root of our being, we can go into a deeper state of consciousness and return to the Source, the “I AM” -- a promise to peace and happiness.
