Because GOD IS – I AM :
You are, I am, we are, made in the Image and Energy and Substance of GOD. From the highest Source, ParaBrahma, at the level of God Transcendent, mysterious, unknowable, the Source Consciousness Shri Sada Shiva, and His Power Shri Adi Shakti are distilled, as the I of Shiva and the S of Shakti, into the ‘IS’ness, that is. The two facilitate, as both the Witness and the Worker, who co-create through Involution, the Matrix of dimensions, of Time-Space + Matter-Energy, via a Tri Guna three power synergy of AUM.
Shiva’s pure Consciousness then Witnesses the Shakti’s infinite Play or Maya or Dance of Cosmic Universal Creativity that emanates from from the Ardha Bindu down into Sahasra as AUM.
When AUM manifests through its 3 channels and 3 tiers we are in this projected Reality, fractals and reflections of the Universe and its One Light and Love and Power. Causal Spirit levels condense into Subtle Mind levels, and subsequently down into the Gross Body or Material realms. This is how the 9 Chakras are made, surrounded and permeated by Pradakshina and ParamChaitanya. The Omega of surrounded encirclement, and the Absolute Manifestation of AMness, or materialisation, is the Re-Creation of GOD-SELF or Spirit. GOD IS.
At the Highest, GOD IS so subtle as to be unknowable, beyond our perception, but not beyond our reach. Our Source we can call ‘Non-Being’ or Zero, the Grea Tao, or Source that is No-thing, that precedes even Consciousness, which can only verify its own potential power of Knowing of ‘something’ by becoming ‘an other’, for Consciousness to conceive of, and relate to, as something that IS. Therefore to ‘Touch The Transcendent’ we need to express our ‘Pure Desire’ to awaken and raise our Kundalini and Attention up to high overhead, and so touch the intangible Non-Duality or Zero, or tenth level, the ONE ZERO, Source of All.
God the Unmanifest unknowable transcendent issues forth as pure Consciousness, transcendent Father Sada-Shiva, and as pure Creative Mother Primordial Source Energy Adi-Shakti = the I of Consciousness and the S of Shakti, the Source of all IS’ness. This pure Consciousness is “I” the Witness, and the Creativity is the Absolute Manifestation, the Worker, or “AM”ness, of All That IS. Moses asks and GOD Answers literally “I AM THAT I AM”. And this ‘AM’ness is first manifest as the trilogy of A-U-M, the 3 Primordial Powers that are manifesting as everything. We are parts of God’s Re-Creation, an Infinite Manifestation of Evolving Consciousness of Beings, within multi-dimensions, including Time-Space, and Energy-Matter, by the Powers of Maha-Maya.
The fact we experience apparent Separation but are destined to experience Re-Union is the Great Play, that you and I are in. We are part of God’s Self Manifestation. And the core of our Being is Nothing but GOD-SELF or Spirit.
When we say AMEN we recognise the Great Reality, that GOD IS, I AM, AUM, AMEN. So Be It. GOD IS..
