I alone am

[Guest guest]

Nome

from Mandala Seven ofSelf-Knowledge

 

I alone am.

There is no other.

The Truth of the Self,

Eternal " I " -less I,

Alone ever is, and

I myself am

The Truth that I know.

I am the revealed,

The one who reveals,

And the one to whom

The Truth was revealed.

I am the voice

That speaks the scriptures,

And I am the Silence

That reveals the ever-revealed.

The Self being actionless,

I never do anything.

Worldless, actionless,

And bodiless I am.

Timeless, spaceless,

And nonobjective I am.

I, myself, am

The very Existence of all,

And, indeed, I am That

In which never is all.

Not of the world

And not in the world,

Not of the body

And not in a body,

Not of the senses

And not one who senses,

Not in thought

And not one who thinks,

Not an ego,

Individuality unreal,

I am Being,

Which alone is.

I am Consciousness,

Which alone knows.

I am Bliss,

Which alone shines.

I am the Self

Known as " I " by all.

I am the Reality

That is the Existence of all.

I am the Essence,

Ever undivided,

The inner Self

Loved by all.

In all joys

The happiness I am.

In all knowing,

The Knowledge I am.

In all that ever is,

The existence I am.

I am I alone and

I alone am.
