What Am I Now?

The first true statement anyone can make about their self is ‘I am’. This truth applies universally, transcending spiritual inclinations. 'I am' isn't mystical; it's the plain awareness of pure being, inherent in all. This knowledge isn't personal; it is being's self-awareness. To fathom ourselves, shed the past and thoughts. Imagine a self devoid of history and ask, 'What am I now?' This reveals a state akin to a newborn's awareness, free from identity. Our self-knowledge mirrors being's self-awareness, coloured temporarily by human experience. 'I am' serves as a portal to timeless, infinite being, the essence of the world. Your worldview mirrors your self-understanding. To grasp the world's reality, fathom your own. All worldly knowledge stems from thought and perception, except for awareness of being, offering direct access to reality. As Rumi said, "Knowing oneself unveils the universe's ultimate reality." This path attracts scientists, artists, philosophers, and mystics in pursuit of profound truth.
