I am That

Product Information

Give up all questions except one, "Who am I?" After all the only fact you are sure of is that you "are". If you are new to this way of thinking, and you wish to read I AM THAT, or are struggling to read it now, it would help tremendously to first read a friendly introduction to Advaita Vedanta. Nothing too ethereal, steer clear of the Neo-Advaitins for now, perhaps Arthur Osbourne's Ramana Maharshi and the Path of Self-Knowledge , or any basic text on the life and teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi. Sri Ramanasramam publishes a great number of useful books. Aim for something rooted in the life of a person, preferably someone long-dead, and not a rarefied philosophical summary. Thou art a part of me. I cannot deny thee now. For as there is pleasure, there must be pain; as there is joy, there must be anguish. Each thing that lives must die, each dead thing must arise again. For I am All, and no thing is outside me. God Loves Sinners. Mankind’s seemingly hopeless situation reveals a third characteristic of the name Jehovah: His love for sinners. Despite everything, God loves those who have rebelled against Him. After Adam and Eve fell, Jehovah demonstrated His love for His rebellious creation. He had the right to destroy them instantly. But Scripture says, “For Adam also and for his wife did the LORD [YHVH] God make coats of skins, and clothed them” (Gen. 3:21).

Live In The Moment Understanding explains why staying true to oneself no matter what happens always leads one down a path filled with serenity instead of chaos brought on by others’ judgmental views! We Are All The Same Interestingly, no one really knows how to pronounce this most important of God’s names. Because it was considered too holy to utter, down through the ages YHVH was vowel-pointed with the vowels for Adonai. Today almost all Jewish people automatically say “Adonai” whenever they see this name in the Sidur(Jewish prayer book) or Scriptures. Some will simply say “Ha-Shem,” which means “the name.”It was round about eighteen thousand measures: and the name of the city from that day shall be, The Lord is there”( Ezekiel 48:35). Jehovah is different from the other two primary names, Elohimand Adonai. Jehovah is personal. It can apply to only one deity—the God of the Hebrew people, the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The revered Jewish sage and rabbi from the Middle Ages, Moses Maimonides, said with regard to this name, Jenny Gallagher (1 April 2011). Yen Path: Taking Steps Towards What You Want in Life.

Maurice Frydman, a Jewish refugee from Warsaw, came to India in the late 1930s. Initially, he worked at the State Government Electric Factory in Bangalore. Later, influenced by Mahatma Gandhi, he worked in Aundh State (the present Satara district) on the Aundh Experiment for local self-governance. [19] Thereafter he took sannyas (renunciation). He was associated with Sri Ramana Maharshi and J. Krishnamurti. Eventually he became a disciple of Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj in the early days of Nisargadatta's spiritual work in 1965. Frydman spoke Marathi and so became a translator of Nisargadatta's talks. He recorded and compiled the sessions, leading to the publication of I Am That.
