The consciousness actually is who I am.

Who?

Yes,

That is the true I am.

Yes,

But I have presumed a false I,

This ego,

This body,

This mind.

When I see the true I am,

This false I am dies.

And then what remains is only the is-ness really because it is not a personal I am anymore.

Many of the yogic traditions also stop here in the personal I am.

Yes,

And then the personal I am is surrendering to the bigger consciousness.

But still duality is there.

Yeah,

One more step.

You have to take that one more step and recognize no,

There is no personal I am.

How can it be personal?

How can there be one infinite I am there and one infinite I am there?

So really it is just one single I am-ness.
