The "I am" affirmation - a visualisation.
Ian Gardner
A Quotation (This is you too, dear reader, so visualise each line carefully):
As the droplet is to the ocean,
I am.
As the lick of flame is to the fire,
I am.
As the sunbeam is to sunlight,
I am.
As the Great Spirit is,
I am.
from The Milk Is White.
Here is a visualisation:
re. line 1. Visualise a drop of water dropped into a glass of water; it is one with the water but still exists in its own right.
re. line 2. Visualise a fire and a lick of its flame; the lick is often separate from the fire but is still part of it. Without the fire it does not exist.
re. line 3. Visualise sunlight and a sunbeam. The sunbeam exists only because something has blocked out part of the ambient sunlight. Remove the block, and the sunbeam merges with the ambient sunlight. What appeared to be separate is now all one - yet the sunbeam still exists as it was.
re. line 4. Visualise, therefore, the relationship of "I am" (you) to the Great Spirit which is omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient - the Creative Force, God. Hence, "I am" is all
these things.

Ian, that is so beautiful and so powerful in its awesome nature.
To this day, Sophia, I too am struck by the beauty of expression in this affirmation and the way in which water, fire and light are arranged in ascending order according to their density. Of course, Spirit has no density.
As the Essence of Love
I am
I love this affirmation Ian. It cuts through all the noise & puts your brain into the right state so effortlessly.Peace & Blessings to you
I am happy to be of such help, Adhikari.
