The essence of the I AM bridges the physical, the spiritual and the
transmigratory activity of human existence. I AM represents God’s
infinite spirit; the I AM Presence embodies the individualized presence
of God—the relationship between the human self and the Divine Presence
within and around us. The resulting energy unites and becomes the
taproot of all God powers: life, intelligence, power, and action.
During
each lifetime, the light, life, and energy of the soul flow from the I
AM Presence to our physical and light bodies. This twining connection of
energy and light—also known as the Silver cord—follows the pull of
gravity. Light streams through the crown of the head where it cascades
to the heart of the Presence and circulates to the base of the brain:
the medulla oblongata. Tiny threads of light radiate energy to every
cell of the body. The Hindus call these healing filaments Nadis; chakras
form at points of intensity. Light then surges from these tributaries
of energy—Nadis and chakras—to a mighty confluence of light energy known
as the Pillar of Light or the Tube of Light.
The Ascended Masters
rely heavily on the power of the I AM Presence for protection.
Conscious calls to the I AM Presence activate the Pillar of Light,
insulating lower bodies—causal, astral, and physical—from difficult
Karmas. The Pillar of Light and the addition of the Violet Flame
construct a spiritual shelter much like the protective force of mantras,
spiritual ceremonies, and prayers. That’s why the consistent practice
of these transcendental exercises raises spiritual consciousness: the
summoning of greater fields of light ameliorates and eliminates
seemingly insurmountable difficulties, and creates miracles.
