15.
The ‘I am’ is the sum total of all that
you
perceive, it’s time-bound, the ‘I am’
itself
is an illusion, you are not the ‘I am’
you
are prior to it.
Since
the ‘I am’ is the continuous link throughout
all
the events in your life it quite obviously forms
the
sum total of all your perception.
It
is the very basis of your perception, no ‘I am’ no perception.
This
‘I am’ is an illusion, for like a dream it has spontaneously
appeared on you and one day it will disappear.
All
that appears and disappears cannot be true and
since you are a witness to it you stand apart.
You are not the ‘I am’ but prior to it.
