” ‘I am’ is consciousness. I am is absolute reality. I am is pure awareness. And that is always with you. How can it not be? For after all, you only exist because I am exists. Or you may call ‘I am’ God, if you desire. … You are That. There is no God or I am apart from you.

You are a wonderful being, a pure being, a spiritual being, a God-like being. Yet, what do you think of yourself? You worry, you fear, you think you have problems. What kind of problems can God ever have?”

~ Robert Adams (20th century American Advaita mystic)
