Read the quote again Pete. Any words are of mind consciouness. There are other levels of consciousness to be in But my loss of words in my last post was a realization fart, I think. But I have recovered. The whammer jammer sentance in the quote I think is " there is no I am in awareness. " Hence that would mean there is no I am. There is only awareness aware of itself.
