Episode 38: Expanding Your Relationship With the "I AM" Presence

[00:00:00] Hello and welcome to the One Thing podcast. We've been on a little bit of a hiatus. We

[00:00:22] didn't mean it to snowball into being this long. But here we are back with you where the purpose of our I AM presence. Yes. And if the phrase I AM presence is not yet familiar to you, it's basically another term, another another way of talking about spirit, source, the divine, our higher self, the wisdom of the universe. It's that's disconnected from this presence of being, which is 96% of our anatomy we've said before. We're only 4% this physical part, and yet we place the entirety of our attention upon this give that credence. You know, like I used to dabble in it and say, yeah, yeah, you know, and anyway, it got stronger. And now I happen to know in my heart that there is no other way to make the world a better place

[00:05:27] do that until we don't. So that's our framework for our time together in this podcast. Yes, in this episode in specific, but probably in this podcast. Oh, yeah, I meant every episode.

[00:05:39] And so to kick this off, I'm not good enough. I'm unworthy. I'm undeserving. There is no higher truth because I can't feel it to or see it. And, and then we live from those lies. We live from that, that, that perspective. And it,

[00:07:02] it's, it causes pain and suffering more often than it needs to if we were to just turn ourselves right through our brain chemistry and right through our mind and our, you know, our consciousness where all this, these, these lies are churning anyway. And that energy that is in our heart and connecting to our higher presence is of the vibration or the expression, if you will, of love, wisdom and right action'll ever play out that way. But if it does exist, if we can honor nature for a miraculous expression, including our own bodies, then we can apply that energy, this love, wisdom, and power, to our own thoughts, our own feelings, our own words, and our own actions. And we can start doing the purity of life that's present in every breath to help you know the essence of life. Yeah. And then as you can, oh sorry. Just before you go on to the next piece, I just wanna drive this question home by way of summarizing it,

[00:11:01] which is that it's important for each of us to get honest

[00:12:05] love and wisdom and power where action exists.

[00:12:10] So what is that energy? Get familiar with it, contemplate that.

[00:12:14] What is that energy that's beating in your heart?

[00:12:17] And then the next question is how do you receive

[00:12:24] higher guidance versus our own ego so that you get to know how it comes through you, how you conduit that I am presence, that higher love, wisdom and action, because the process of this is a receiving process. It's a receptive process.

[00:15:02] It's not a projection outward process. The receptivity of our connection to our higher presence is much more joyful and peaceful than what the ego would allow. Right. And so once you have more clarity about how you receive higher guidance in a clear,

[00:16:24] uncontaminated way, that or I'm not sure. But then you can be sure that your ego is at play because the ego is very much isentric. It's, you know, the all egos are narcissists just for the record.

[00:17:43] Mine isn't.

[00:17:45] Well, I'm we is one thing. And then the other thing is if you can access gratitude, then you're more likely than not connected to your higher self.

[00:19:00] And this is the opposite of judgment and criticism, right?

[00:19:03] If there's more judging and criticizing

[00:19:05] and projecting going on,

[00:19:06] then that's a lot. Right. And just to expand a little bit on some of what you said, I know the ego throws out. So that's why these things like the eye, we, the gratitude of the judgment, you know, the peace or the tension are important because they give us cues as to whether or not our ego has taken over or hijacked our state of connection or not.

[00:21:41] Yes.

[00:21:43] And then that leads to the final thing

[00:21:45] that we want to illuminate. inside us, we will often when some higher guidance comes through. And we recognize that clearly, we ask for a second opinion. Are you sure? I'm sure. Right. Right. Sometimes a third opinion. So that question about how how consistent are we in enacting the higher guidance we get?

[00:24:06] So we all have exceptions that we make about what we're not going to consult higher guidance about, what we're going to work out ourselves, and what we are going to consult higher guidance

[00:24:11] about.

[00:24:12] So this final question is simply another aspect of being awake and elevating our relationship

[00:24:20] with our, with our IM presence, which that that inquiry, especially if this is something that you're not 100% sure on, is what what is the energy? What is the energy that's beating your heart or making a tree become

[00:26:43] I am presence throughout each day.

[00:26:48] When you start your day, what's your ritual for connecting at the start of your day?

[00:26:52] How do you connect and reconnect throughout the day?

[00:26:55] Because there are plenty of moments

[00:26:57] when I will temporarily lose connection

[00:27:01] or give up connection with my I am presence.

[00:27:05] So how do I recognize that and then reconnect

[00:27:08] throughout the day? awakening of humanity. So that's a little bit different spin on us in being in trial and error with this right, tripping and falling getting back up. All of that is imperative in the expansion of human humanity's consciousness and in the awakening of this consciousness. So, yeah.

[00:28:21] All right, so we would like to leave you with moment we upset balance, destruction is a result. When mankind wants balance in the world, it must give balance first to the higher presence,

[00:29:42] the I am presence.

[00:29:43] There is no excuse for selfishness. cord and impurity generated every day by mankind. If that were not removed, human beings could not live on this earth and the earth itself could not be sustained. That's one reason to be in gratitude. Indeed. Thank you for that wonderful benediction.
