“I Am” is always present

 I am greedy. I am jealous. I am horny. I am violent;

 

but then, I am also compassionate, and I am loving.

 

Do you realize that love is not the opposite of hate?

 

Love is in a different dimension entirely—how to connect?

 

Life triggers us; the smell of lilac; the smile of our beloved.

 

Maybe it’s the glance of a competitor, or a high-pressure situation.

 

If you want to reach the “I Am” state, own first the I am this or that.

 

 

 

The other day I watched a cycle at play.

 

I felt the passion of sharing a spiritual realization.

 

Then I felt the restlessness and watched something on tv.

 

Then came regret that because of the violence I couldn’t sleep well.

 

I consciously let go of the violence and the restlessness within myself.

 

I felt a release of energy in my eyes; I felt the irregular heartbeat leaving.

 

Suddenly compassion, love and serenity returned; “I Am” is always present.
