Every human creates his own imagined version of the world, and of himself. Every human is therefore Brahma, creator of his own aham. Aham Brahmasmi, I am Brahma. Tat tvam asi, so are you. We knot our imagination with fear to create aham. Tapasya and yagna are two tools that can help us unknot the mind, outgrow fear and discover atma, our true self.

The Upanishads teach monism, that all is God or the Absolute, Sarvam Khalvidam Brahma, “Everything is Brahman”. But they do not do this in simply an abstract manner. That One Being is present in all of us as our own deeper and immortal soul and Self, the Atman, Aham Brahmasmi, “I am Brahman” or the Absolute. In this regard, the Upanishads probably first clearly set forth in human history a way of Self-Knowledge taking us to the Absolute. Yet theism is also present in many places in the Upanishads, a recognition of One God or Isvara as the creator, preserver and destroyer of the universe and the ability to unite with Him (or Her) through meditation. The Upanishads also say Ishavasyam Idam Sarvam, “All this universe is pervaded by the Lord

I Am is the name of God. Of all the definitions of God, none is indeed so well put as the Biblical statement "I Am that I Am" in Exodus (chap. 3). There are other statements, such as Brahmaivaham, Aham Brahmasmi, and Soham. But none is so direct as the name Jehovah = I Am. The Absolute Being is what is – it is the Self. It is God. Knowing the Self, God is known. In fact, God is none other than the Self. (p. 76)

6-Brahmacharya significa “disciplina hacia el Ser”, normalmente mal traducida como “celibato”. Llevar adelante una disciplina dirigida al Ser, al Todo significa encauzar, tal como los rayos de sol al pasar por la lente de aumento de una lupa se concentran en la superficie en que se proyectan quemando con intensidad lo que se encuentre en ese punto. Así el brahmacharya permite que el joven aplique toda su energía en la profundización de las grandes verdades (mahavakyas), como por ejemplo: tat tvam asi (tu eres Aquello), ayam atma brahma (el ser es el Ser), prajñanam brahma  (la sabiduría es el Ser), aham brahmasmi (yo soy el Ser), las cuales medita con profundidad, así como también estudia los veda y aprende su recitación.

Antes de practicar la meditación trascendental debéis alcanzar el plano trascendental, llamado brahma-bhutah. Seguramente habéis escuchado esta palabra: Brahman. Los trascendentalistas piensan: “Aham brahmasmi – no soy el cuerpo – no soy la mente – no soy la inteligencia – soy un alma espiritual”. Este es el plano trascendental. Estamos hablando de meditación trascendental.

If you think awakening is like somebody putting a light ray on the planet earth and we all awaken no! Awakening is inside, insight, in heart, within the soul that awakening is "Aham Brahmasmi - I am divine", So God created man in his own image - Genesis 1:27 inna Llaha khalaqa Adama `ala suratihi. “Allah created the human being in His own image" Ek Onkar Satnam Karta Purakh - There is only one God. His name is true Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is One - Deuteronomy 6:4

El vedanta es una filosofía simple: afirma que nuestro verdadero Ser, lo que denomina Atman, es Dios. «Yo soy Dios» (aham brahmasmi) es la verdad suprema. La misma conciencia que reside en el núcleo de nuestro ser impregna por completo el universo entero. Conocernos a nosotros mismos es conocer a Dios y ser uno con todo. El vedanta es una filosofía de autorrealización, y su práctica es una forma de autorrealización a través del yoga y la meditación.

You are That, here and now. (p. 77)

Whatever was said about Religion was meant human being and nothing else. As for example the Vedic sages said, ‘Aham Brahmasmi’ (I am the Brahma or God), what did he mean? After all he was a human being. It can be said like this, ‘Above all human being is the greatest.

Selbsterkenntnis ist nichts anderes als das Verstehen, dass jede Erfahrung nichts anderes ist als das sich selbst liebende Selbst […] Die Freude ist immerwährend, weil du ewig bist und deine Natur Glückseligkeit ist.

Question : HOW TO SACRIFICE THE EGO? Osho : IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. THE EGO CANNOT BE SACRIFICED because the ego exists not. The ego is just all idea: it has no substance in it. The ego is a kind of absence. Because you don't know yourself, hence the ego.The ego is like darkness; darkness has no positive existence of its own; it is simply the absence of light. You cannot fight with darkness, or can you? You cannot throw darkness out of the room; you cannot take it out, you cannot take it in. If you put the light on, there is no darkness; if you put the light off, there is darkness. Darkness is only the absence of light -- so is ego: absence of self-knowledge. You cannot sacrifice it. It has been told to you again and again: "Sacrifice your ego" -- and the statement is patently absurd, because something that does not exist cannot be sacrificed. And if you try to sacrifice it, something which is not there in the first place at all, you will be creating a new ego -- the ego of the humble, the ego of the egoless, the ego of the person who thinks he has sacrificed his ego. It will be a new kind of darkness again. No, I don't say to you: Sacrifice the ego. On the contrary, I say: Try to see where the ego is. Look DEEP into it; try to locate it, where it exists, whether it exists at all or not. Before one can sacrifice anything one must be certain about its existence. But don't be against it from the very beginning. If you are against it, you cannot look deep into it. There is no need to be against anything. The ego is your experience -- maybe it is just apparent, but it is still your experience. Your whole life moves around the phenomenon of the ego. It may be a dream. But to you it is so true. There is no need to be against it. Dive deep into it, go into it. Going into it means bringing awareness into your house, bringing light into darkness. Be alert, watchful. Watch the ways of the ego, how it functions, how it manages at all. And you will be surprised: the deeper you go into it, the less it is found. And when you have penetrated to the very core of your being, you will find something totally different which is not ego, which is egolessness. It is self, supreme self -- it is God. You have disappeared as a separate entity; you are no more an island, now you are part of the whole. In that experience of being one with the whole, the ego is sacrificed, but that is only a way of speaking, a metaphor. Don't take it literally. Try to understand the ego. Analyse it, dissect it, watch it, observe it, from as many angles as possible. And don't be in a hurry to sacrifice it, otherwise the greatest egoist is born: the person who thinks he is humble, the person who thinks that he has no ego. Rather, follow a totally different path: meditate on the phenomenon of ego, enquire what it is. And as the enquiry deepens, the ego disappears. Enquiring into the ego you will come to the self. And remember: the self has nothing to do with the ego, because the self has nothing to do with you at all. The self is always the supreme self: AHAM BRAHMASMI! At that point, you (the ego) are not, only God is: Tat-tvam-asi -- thou art that. At that point, there is no distinction between thou and that. The dewdrop has disappeared into the ocean and has become the ocean itself. But no sacrifice -- the non-substantial cannot be sacrificed, it can only be understood. And in the very understanding is the disappearing. And this disappearance is beautiful, because it does not leave any traces behind, no scars, no wounds.
