I Am Here

This is a profound book to live and work with over a period of time as one deepens one's spiritual insight into life. The five sections are entitled I Am Here, Consciousness, Awareness, Emptiness and Here Am I, each interwoven with the other. Who am I? What is the meaning of 'am' in I am? What does being here entail? Each of these chapters/aspects is summarised right at the beginning and then expanded on throughout the book. The chapters contain a seed line out of which they grow. Here is a sample of the style: 'Before we were conceived, whether or not we believe in life before birth, there was love. This love was pervading through the plane of divided forms, blending, attracting, and moving male and female, sperm and egg towards collision.' Here again: 'Through the need to care for form and preserve it, we can neglect the existence from which form was born, confusing the manifestation for that which is manifesting.' Now can dissolve as it expands to an eternal dimension behind time. The words in this book are transparent to a deeper mystery for those who can intuit it. Observation of an event is different from awareness of it, its felt sense. Behind all this is stillness and perhaps the potent energy of emptiness. And beyond that is unity. Ultimately, I am here for you. Although dense, there is much food for thought and reflection in these words.
