「我是我所是」是一句從古自今,神透過各種方式一直在向世人解說有關「祂是誰、祂是什麼」的重要聲明之一。想真正領會這句古老又難解的聲明的意思,要先讓自己靜定片刻以提升振動頻率,讓自己處於較高意識下,然後,試著打開心胸,一句一句地跟隨這篇的引導,並且反覆地讀第二遍、第三遍。這樣地重複兩三遍,你將能了解和領會神解說這句「我是我所是」的意思。你將開始真正認識神。
此篇是《與神合一》裡,神對這句話的引導解說。值得每位想認識神的人靜心參閱:
聽神談【「我是我所是」(I AM THAT I AM.)的意思】
真相(Truth)只不過是表示「現在的實實情況是什麼」(“what is so right now”)的一個字眼。然而,真實的情況(what is so)永遠在改變,所以,真相永遠在變。
你們的世界一直是這樣在向你們顯示。你們的人生一直是這樣在向你們展示。
人生的過程,事實上,就是改變。減縮到一個字,生命即改變(life is change)。
神即生命。所以,神即改變。(God is Life. Therefore, God is Change.)
一言以蔽之,神即改變。
神是個過程。不是個存在體,而是個過程。(God is a process. Not a being, but a process.)
那過程被稱為改變。
你們有些人可能比較喜歡稱它為「演化」。
神是那「在演化的能量」……或那「在變成為的過程」。
那「在變成為的」(That Which Becomes)並不需要特別條件才能變成為。生命就單純地成為它成為的,而你們為了要定義它、描寫它、量化它、測量它,並且試圖控制它,你們就將某些條件歸諸於它。
然而,生命沒有「條件」。它只是「是」。生命就只「如它所是」。
「我是我所是」。(I AM THAT I AM.)
你現在也許第一次完全地瞭解這古老的、神祕難解的聲明。
當你明白,為了讓你經驗無條件(亦即,為了讓你認識神),所以「條件」必須好像是存在的,你會祝福存在你人生中的條件,以及你曾經驗過的每個狀況。這些條件和狀況一直在讓你能夠體驗:你比它們任何一個都大,也比它們全都合起來還更大。你們的人生一直在向你們顯示這一點。
摘自《與神合一》第15章
Truth is nothing more than a word meaning "what is so right now." Yet what is so is always changing. Therefore, truth is always changing.
Your world has shown you this. Your life has demonstrated this to you.
The process of Life is, in fact, change. Reduced to one word, life is change.
God Is Life. Therefore, God Is Change.
In one word, God Is Change.
God is a process. Not a being, but a process.
And that process is called change.
Some of you might prefer the word evolution.
God is the energy that evolves . . . or, That Which Becomes.
That Which Becomes needs no special condition in order to become. Life simply becomes what it becomes, and in order for you to define it, describe it, quantify it, measure it, and try to control it, you ascribe certain conditions to it.
Yet Life has no conditions. it simply is. Life is what it is.
AM THAT I AM.
You may now fully understand this ancient enigmatic statement for the first time.
When you know that conditions must appear to exist in order for you to experience non- conditionality (that is, in order for you to know God), you will bless the conditions of your life, and every condition that you have ever experienced. These conditions have allowed you to experience that you are larger than any of them. Larger than all of them combined. Your life has shown you this.
