‘I’ Is the Name Being Gives to Itself

A man asks about using ‘I’ and ‘I am’ during meditation, feeling that ‘I’ leads to a deeper stillness, while ‘I am’ seems more emotional. Rupert explains that both ‘I’ and ‘I am’ refer to being, or awareness. He adds that ‘I’ is the name being gives to itself, and ‘I am’ is the first statement it makes. Both lead to the same awareness as long as nothing is added to them, like emotions or thoughts.
