No other than I AM
Existence is consciousness expressing thought of separation. Every particle of existence is consciousness. All that is formed in existence is consciousness. Every coming and going is consciousness. The whole of your world is consciousness-expressing. You are consciousness-expressing. Consciousness-expressing is I AM. You are I AM. Existence is I AM. There is no other than I AM.
Do not search in existence for reality. Reality cannot be known in form. Stop running about in the billowing dust of the world. You are blinded by its veil. Words may point you toward your desire, but do not cling to them. To cling to the signpost does not get you to your destination. Forget seeking. Forget learning. Knowledge lies in the room within. Herein words cannot say. Effort is for naught. Leave them on the threshold. Enter naked and unadorned. The witness will clothe you. Your eyes are cleared of dust. Your ears tuned to the harmony of the whole of the all. Twia knows the way. You do not. To remember, hold peace of heart always. Joy will fall upon you. Do not search in the shadows. Find the light within.
The whole of the all is twia. Twia is I AM. I AM is consciousness-expressing. Consciousness-expressing is the whole of the all. There is no separation but in perception of thought. Particles gather. Then disperse. Then gather until dispersing. Life comes and goes in birth and death of particles, form, the universe itself. There is order to it all. Universal laws prevail. All has a natural function without meaning or purpose.
Nature provides function in your world. In ignorance and fear the me of the body does not see the whole of the all. Does not hear its harmony. The way of the path is hidden in the brambles and dust of perception. The way of the world becomes false reality. You have lost your connection with the natural order. It does not leave you. You are more than the me of the body. You are that which I AM. The whole of the all.
