Upanishads
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.
Devdutt Pattanaik (Sita: An Illustrated Retelling of the Ramayana)
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.

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)
Ramana Maharshi (Talks With Ramana Maharshi: On Realizing Abiding Peace and Happiness)
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
David Frawley (The Principal Upanishads: The Essential Philosophical Foundation of Hinduism (Sacred Wisdom))
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.
David Frawley (Meditación vedanta: Enseñanzas para encender la llama de la conciencia (Spanish Edition))
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.

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.
Sri Jibankrishna or Diamond
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.
Pablo Veloso (Sadhana, el camino interior: La tradición primordial a la luz del hinduísmo alegórico (Spanish Edition))
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
Aiyaz Uddin (The Inward Journey)
Dervish Advaitam Sonnet Aham dharmam, aham daivam, Aham qurban for bhoolokam. Aham nyayam, aham shastram, Aham the end of all divisionism. Aham prakriti, aham pralayam, Aham the seed of all causality. I am life, I am death as well, Life to love ‘n death to inhumanity. To most people family is the world, But to me the world is family. Because I am accountable for all life, I am the epitome of collectivity. All that is civilized starts with me. Aham brahmandam, aham brahmasmi. (aham: I am, dharmam: duty, daivam: divinity, qurban: sacrificed, bhoolokam: kingdom of earth, nyayam: justice, shastram: gospel, prakriti: nature, pralayam: apocalypse, brahmandam: universe, brahmasmi: almighty)
Abhijit Naskar (Dervish Advaitam: Gospel of Sacred Feminines and Holy Fathers)
There's a couple of different realizations. Perhaps the first realization is Aham Brahmasmi. Then perhaps the following is realized. Before Abraham I AM. Then perhaps the following is realized. Before Brahman ॐ. As such it is realized ॐ. But it doesn't stop here for what really matters is Love. You see. Why does Self (I) perceive itself as diversified? Diversity exists not to be alone. Diversity exists for Companionship. Diversity exist for Love. Love is Terminus Ad Quem.
Wald Wassermann
You are That, here and now. (p. 77)
Ramana Maharshi (Talks With Ramana Maharshi: On Realizing Abiding Peace and Happiness)
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.
James Swartz (Yoga der Liebe: Naradas Bhakti Sutra aus der Perspektive des Vedanta)
